It is clearly a new – and better – day in Harvey” said Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle, speaking at a ribbon cutting at an affordable senior building. “After years of disinvestment, what is happening today in Harvey is just cause for celebration – of what has been accomplished and what is soon to come,” said Preckwinkle. “I commend Mayor Christopher J. Clark and his staff for their commitment and leadership.”
President Preckwinkle’s remarks were made at an event celebrating the $32 million acquisition and renovation of the 120-apartment South Suburban Senior Apartments in the city’s downtown “TOD” district. Long owned and operated by the Metropolitan Chicago YMCA until 2019, when the Y announced it was selling much of its housing portfolio, many feared the building and affordable housing would be lost. Instead, Preservation of Affordable Housing (POAH), one of the nation’s leading affordable housing preservation nonprofits, purchased the 155th Street building and two other Harvey properties, which also will undergo renovation soon.
