A new community plaza would be created in East Garfield Park through the sale of a quarter-acre of City land under a proposal introduced to City Council today by Mayor Brandon Johnson.

The nonprofit Homan Housing LLC would acquire the land, consisting of five lots at Harrison Street and Homan Avenue, for $3,575. The properties are valued at $35,751.

The $200,000 project will convert the vacant site into a public space called the Homan Gateway.
