Development Plan details Hyde Park Kenwood housing area
The plan targets a 14.5 acre Acquisition Area between 55th and 56th Cottage Grove and Ellis. It calls for a 50 percent housing reduction, 94 existing units to remain, 492 torn down for 200 new units, and University ownership of the Development Area with repairs required within 12 months. The Hyde Park Kenwood report awaits July action by the Community Conservation board, delaying a special issue.
