Priorities include new and rehabilitated commercial projects, the rehabilitation of existing residential properties, the replacement of obsolete commercial and industrial buildings with a mix of market rate and affordable housing uses, enhanced off-street parking opportunities, and improved greenways along the Chicago River and North Branch Channel. Additional goals include façade improvements along local shopping corridors, institutional investments, the establishment and expansion of job training programs, and expanded day care opportunities for area residents.
