Evergreen Breaks Ground on Evanston Seniors Project

Evergreen Real Estate Group along with CJE SeniorLife began construction on Evanston Senior Housing, a 60-unit affordable rental community in Evanston, IL. The $25-million project will be a four-story, 73,017-square-foot residential building next to the existing CJE SeniorLife Adult Day Services center. 

Evanston Senior Housing is owned by 1015 Howard LP, a partnership that includes CJE SeniorLife, Evergreen and U.S. Bancorp Community Development Corporation, the community development and tax credit subsidiary of U.S. Bank. 
 
“Evanston Senior Housing is an innovative development that creates much-needed affordable senior housing while improving the existing ADS center that has enriched the lives of countless Evanston seniors over the years,” said David Block, director of development for Evergreen. “It is unusual to have affordable senior housing and support services paired together in the same location – a model that we feel can be replicated elsewhere in the Chicago area and across the country.”
