Revitalizing The West Chicago Avenue CorridorWest Chicago Avenue, a commercial stretch just minutes from downtown Chicago, has high vacancy rates, high crime and poverty rates and lots of neglected commercial space.
With the help of Partners in Progress, the Chicago Community Loan Fund and the West Humboldt Park Family and Community Development Council are working with residents and businesses to bring economic vitality to the corridor.
