Brook Architecture designed five building types for Phase I of this 100-acre development including 3- and 6-flat buildings targeted to a mixed-income housing market. The development offers rental and for-sale units at market and affordable rates. Vintage architectural elements found in typical Chicago neighborhoods bring a historical flavor to this new community. The distinctive eased corner of Brook’s mixed-use building located on of the development’s primary intersections, contributes to the neighborhood’s revitalized retail business.

As part of the design process, Brook, along with other members of the multi-firm design team, attended several town hall meetings to hear the ideas and concerns of future residents and neighbors. 

Roosevelt Square successfully blends new construction into the fabric of a long-established community and won the 2007 Chicago Neighborhood Development Award for Outstanding For-Profit Real Estate Project.
