More CHA-Subsidized Housing Coming to Humboldt Park and West Englewood

This month, CHA’s Board of Commissioners approved 69 new Project-Based Vouchers (PBVs) in Humboldt Park and West Englewood, allowing CHA residents greater choices in where to live.

• Paseo 606 in Humboldt Park is a new 44-unit, six-story elevator-served residential property. PBVs will assist 19 units.
• Branch of Hope in West Englewood was built in 2010 and includes 100 units serving adults needing comprehensive services. CHA is expanding its partnership in Chicago’s Plan to End Homelessness and increasing its PBV assistance from 58 to 68 units.
• Clara’s Village in West Englewood opened in 2008 and contains 52 units of permanent supportive housing for extremely low-income households with children. CHA is committing 40 Project-Based Vouchers to support units that were formally subsidized through a recently expired HUD program. These PBVs will guarantee housing stability for 40 formerly homeless families.
