Corktown continues to change, but city leaders say the goal is to make sure longtime residents can be part of that growth.
Three new housing developments are expected to bring 188 homes to the neighborhood, with most of them designated as affordable housing. The projects are designed to create opportunities for working families, seniors, and residents who want to stay in the community as housing costs continue to rise.
