The new development has a total of 54 units, 15 of which will be subsidized through the CHA. The property management company is currently seeking individuals who are interested in applying for the affordable units and currently reside in Rogers Park to be placed on their waitlist. This waitlist is only to fill the remaining 39 units, not the 15 subsidized units for which the CHA will provide the applicants. Clark-Estes Apartments LP will accept vouchers for the remaining 39 units. 

​

Construction on the site is still underway and expected to be completed by the end of October. Clark-Estes Apartments LP is aiming to have residents move in by late November or early December of this year.
