Hello to all my friends and neighbors in the 50th Ward. I am always available and happy to help with any city needs. I hope to hear from you soon!
A Message from Alderman Silverstein
“The 50th Ward is the most diverse and wonderful neighborhood in the City of Chicago. There is nowhere else where you can visit an Indian restaurant, a Kosher bakery, and a Muslim bookstore all within a few blocks. If you live here, you know how great it is. If you don’t, come on up and see what the 50th Ward has to offer!”

Twenty-five years ago, our nation was forever changed by the September 11 attacks. We pause today to remember the nearly 3,000 innocent lives stolen by an act of unimaginable terror.
We stand with the people of New York City and all those who were affected by that terrible day. We honor the first responders who ran toward danger and the heroes who sacrificed everything to save others.
May we never forget those we lost and those who served. May their memories forever be a blessing. ... See MoreSee Less
