  • Connecting People and Place Prosperity in Chicago's
    University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Department of Urban and Regional Planning MUP ’16 – Capstone Report Chicago’s Near North neighborhood, best known as the former site of the Cabrini-Green public housing project, has been an area of contrasts between wealth and poverty for over 100 years. In 2015 a court settlement was reached between Cabrini-Green residents and the Chicago Housing Authority, clearing a path for the construction of 1,800 new affordable housing units in the neighborhood as part of a larger mixed- income community1. Concurrently, several high- and mid-rise condominium developments have been built on the neighborhood’s periphery with more scheduled for construction in coming years. Within the context of this significant change, this document posits a variety of strategies to integrate a new character of built form into the Near North while remaining attentive to the needs of long-term neighborhood residents and incoming public housing residents. This document consists of three sections composed with a goal of providing an understanding of the neighborhood’s past and offering strategies for future improvements to the neighborhood’s physical structure and the systems that serve its residents. Section One attempts to develop an historical context for the Near North of 2016 through a review of the neighborhood’s history and how the neighborhood’s relative isolation from the success of the city around it has led to the state of change in which the neighborhood exists today. Section Two centers on the work of the University of Illinois at Urbana’s Chicago Studio, an interdisciplinary, five-member collaboration between the Illinois School of Architecture and the Department of Urban and Regional Planning, whose goal was to develop an urban design- based vision for the Near North of the future based on input from existing neighborhood stakeholders and a range public and private sector professionals.
