POAH - Preservation of Affordable Housing

Overview

Grove Parc Plaza is a 504-unit Section 8 housing development located at a key site in the Woodlawn neighborhood of Chicago, occupying three blocks of South Cottage Grove Avenue between the University of Chicago and the terminus of the CTA’s Green Line.
Preservation of Affordable Housing (POAH) will replace Grove Parc’s distressed and obsolete buildings with the new Woodlawn Park development – a variety of distinctive structures combining residential, commercial and recreational uses – making South Cottage Grove Avenue the center of a healthy new mixed-use, mixed-income community. Critically, Grove Parc’s Section 8 units will be preserved as an affordable housing resource for current and future residents in the Woodlawn area.
Professional management services, including 24-hour emergency response, are offered by Preservation Housing Management (PHM).
