Chicago Housing Commissioner on Green Social Housing Initiative, Department Spending – WTTW (Chicago)

Commissioner Lissette Castañeda said of the Green Social Housing initiative: "This is an innovative but proven model. It is true that Chicago is the biggest city to take this on, but at the end of the day, other cities have taken this on, and we’re just doing it at a larger scale. We fully believe that there is a desire out there for low-cost capital that can really create not just the affordable units, but the market units that the city also needs.”
