Abstract

This project examines the Troubled Building Initiative in Chicago, a housing recovery program that targets the city's worst buildings in an effort to preserve the affordable housing stock found within the city. Primarily focused on the years 2009-2016, this project seeks to better understand how Chicago was impacted by the housing foreclosure crisis and how the city, specifically through TBI's multi-family housing program, responded to the crisis.
