Co-Located Senior Rentals and Library Open in Irving Park
Evergreen Real Estate Group recently joined public-private partners for a ceremonial ribbon-cutting to celebrate the completion of Independence Apartments, a six-story, 44-unit affordable senior rental community located above the new Independence Branch Library in the North Side’s Irving Park.
Company executives were joined by 45th Ward Ald. Jim Gardiner and officials from the Chicago Housing Authority, Chicago Public Library and the Chicago Department of Housing for the Sept. 23 grand opening.
“Independence Apartments is truly something to celebrate as it represents what creativity and collaboration can achieve in addressing the affordable housing shortage here in Chicago, and in neighborhoods across the nation,” said David Block, Evergreen’s director of development.
Independence is one of two co-located affordable housing/library projects developed by Evergreen and its public partners. Both projects were funded, in part, with federal low-income housing tax credits and Illinois affordable housing tax credits provided by the Chicago Department of Housing.
