Join fellow community members and a team of development professionals for the first in a series of three Corridor Development Initiative meetings for the property at 6300 S. Cottage Grove Ave. Get all the details and updates here.

The Metropolitan Planning Council (MPC), in partnership with the Cook County Land Bank Authority, is coordinating and facilitating a series of three workshops in Woodlawn that will get resident input for the redevelopment of the vacant building. Earlier this year, the Cook County Land Bank acquired this property through the scavenger sale. 

This first meeting provides an overview of current land use policies and demographic and commercial changes in the community, giving residents a chance to discuss (re)development opportunities and challenges and set concrete goals.

This event will be followed by a second meeting on Feb. 6 and a third on Feb. 20Each meeting builds on the one before, so we strongly encourage you to attend all three.

MPC thanks our partners at the Cook County Land Bank Authority and the Chicago Park District for helping us make this initiative possible.

MPC thanks its funders who generously support this work.
