The school across the street features lots of new outdoor space. The building should allow free parking for residents and guest. Utilizing outdoor space to feature plants can brighten a space. A short fence that prevents the space from looking like a jail. Feature local artist in the halls or common area when possible.

A pool and a garden would be a great feature. Doorbells with cameras for residents. A mail room with large lockers for safe package drop off

Retail will be greatly appreciated. Both rental and condo apartments and/or duplexes are good as long as they are well built.

Please do not include any marijuana or liquor sales and no bars in the retail portion. Also, an arts oriented business would help preserve culture. No more than one salon and one barber shop. I don't think that more would be profitable for the owners--too close.

Some of the buildings have a bit of art-deco near the top, this would be nice. Also perhaps some tile in vestbules.

Larger apartments need open concept for family gatherings. Tub/shower combos.

Landscaping, fencing, a toddler playground would be nice. However, we are too close to the high school to have a regular playground. It would be overtaken.

Considerations need to be made in how best to maintain the property and work with the city to improve existing infrastructure around the development.

I leave the neighborhood for everything. The dollar store and liquor store are even closed now. I would start with groceries, but restaurants, places to eat breakfast, even nail salons and stuff.

Dedicated police patrols that want the project to succeed. Attractive brick and wrought iron fencing that encloses the property and can be closed.

Create safe space surrounding businesses, including bus/train stops free of loitering. Allowing businesses space for outdoor dining/patios. Help them develop businesses of value to the community, such as fresh food markets.

I believe long term owners will want at least 2 bedrooms. So, 2 and 3 bedroom should be priority with fewer single.

This is a very old neighborhood, some of the original downtown buildings of Chicago. I think it should have a multicultural feel, but also reflect the current neighborhood.

Create connections with the historical Fifth City Human Development Project that worked to revitalize the neighborhood in the 60s-80s. Tell the stories of radical community development that are part of the history of this area from Fifth City to Madison Ave's heyday as a commercial corridor to the still existing Fifth City preschool (one of the longest federally funded pre-K's in the nation--the model was studied by a number of organizations).

Offer business training courses and certifications; create business incubators (L1 business accelerator through Arts & Public Life is a good model); bring in speakers and uplift local examples of neighborhood folks being entrepreneurs

I like the clean and modern model. It’s not going to be similar with the stiles of the area, yes we know what but nothing building know looks similar to 1800-1900 construction.

They should be constucted with materials that will not degrade after 10 years. It is important that these items are selected for long-term mindsets to make it a stable asset to the community.

For me creating some sort of retail hub would be first. Shop, dine, drink. Wicker Park had the intersection of North/Milwaukee and Damen and things spread from there. Logan Square also has a stretch of Milwaukee, Pilsen has 18th St., Little Village 26th St. West Garfield I would say has Madison Ave., battered as it is, but East Garfield I don't feel has a real center. I'm hoping lake St. also becomes a corridor.
