Words from our Partners
“Reducing the number of vacant storefronts in local neighborhoods is important, because vacant properties in commercial corridors reduce foot traffic which further reduce sales opportunities for existing businesses.”
Felicia Slaton-Young
Executive Director
Greater Englewood Chamber of Commerce
“When I think about small businesses on the south side, I think about how eager and energetic businesses are to find a commercial space and how many vacant properties that are vacant, that could be filled with that new energy.”
Diane Burnham,
Executive Director
South East Chicago Commission
“It was imperative to join the Neighborhood Revitalization Coalition, as we understand that this is a collaborative city-wide effort. We hope that this partnership allows us to create stronger relationships with our property owners, so we can help address this issue together.”
Nilda Esparza,
Executive Director
Logan Square Chamber of Commerce
