What a green building project looks like here
Brighton Park is one of Chicago's most Mexican-American community areas (~70% Latino population) — Spanish-language CDOB filings and contractor communications are near-universal, with significant Cook County Ward-office translation capacity.
The neighborhood sits adjacent to the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal — parcels within 200 ft of the canal face combined-sewer overflow (CSO) monitoring requirements when kitchen waste-lines are re-routed or extended.
Because Brighton Park's bungalow stock was built by a relatively homogeneous set of developers in the 1920s-1930s, floor plans repeat in predictable patterns — contractors with recent block-level experience can often provide materials takeoffs without full measuring.

Who is Baily?
Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.
He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.
That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.
Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
