Roosevelt Square replaces existing housing from
five public housing developments located just west of the Chicago
Loop. The new community features a vibrant, attractive,
mixed-use, mixed-income neighborhood, where people of all economic
strata, races, and cultures will live, learn, work, play and raise
their families in close proximity to abundant employment, retail
and cultural opportunities.
Residential blocks feature a
mix of traditional Chicago-style housing consisting of
single-family homes through six flat buildings. Units will
rise no higher than four stories.
Extensive new
infrastructure will be created to develop the neighborhood city
block street pattern for the new community and to strengthen
linkages and create continuity with the adjacent downtown
core. View project website here
