On Monday, Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot was joined by representatives of the Chicago Housing Authority, the City of Chicago Department of Housing, and Related Midwest for the ceremonial groundbreaking of Roosevelt Square Phase 3B, part of the innovative, master-planned, 160-acre development on Chicago’s Near West Side. Formerly the site of the ABLA public housing project, Roosevelt Square is a multiphase, mixed-income development that will ultimately bring more than 2,000 new housing units to Chicago’s Near West Side. Phase 3B includes three new-construction mid-rise buildings with a mix of studios and one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments with 92 market-rate apartments, 80 apartments for families with CHA subsidies, and 50 affordable/workforce apartments. Included in this phase is the restoration of the last remaining Jane Addams building which will house the new National Public Housing Museum, including 15 apartment homes. All apartments will include luxury finishes. The new building at Taylor and Racine will feature a fitness center, an indoor entertainment space, an amenity terrace, resident parking, tenant storage and indoor bike storage. Fresh Stop Produce & Deli and The Slice Shop, a local grocer and pizzeria, will be opening its largest location on the ground floor of the building. The new buildings at 1257 W. Roosevelt and 1357 W. Roosevelt will feature a fitness center, outdoor amenity space, a dog run, a package receiving room, resident parking, tenant storage and indoor bike storage.  Phase 3B is expected to be completed in Summer 2024.  For more information, visit www.thecha.org
