A real estate developer whose bribes sent a West Side alderman to prison heads a company that controls the vacant Bridgeport warehouse devastated by an extra-alarm fire this week, records show. Calvin Boender went to prison in 2010 for bribing former Ald. Isaac “Ike” Carothers with $40,000 in work on the alderman’s home in exchange for Carothers’ support of a controversial Galewood commercial and residential development.
Property and court records list 3737 Ashland, LLC, as owner of the building at 3757 S. Ashland Ave. gutted by fire starting Tuesday evening. Boender was the original manager of the LLC, and has since been replaced, but property records show tax bills for the property going to another of Boender’s companies, North Development, Ltd., in Elmhurst. The Ashland LLC took title to the property in early 2006, but the same deed refers to North Development as the taxpayer for the property.
