That’s the size of the lawsuit waged against one of its former tenants on Monday, in response to a Tweet about one of their Chicago apartments. Amanda Bonnen was staying an apartment at 4242 N. Sheridan, one of over 1,500 apartments owned by the company. According to the Chicago Sun-Times, Bonnen’s Tweet on May 12 read, in part: “Who said sleeping in a moldy apartment was bad for you? Horizon realty thinks it’s okay.” http://mashable.com/2009/07/28/woman-sued-tweet/
