Hanover Park gets advice on revamping Irving Park Road corridor
January 29, 2013
Daily Herald, 1/26/13 – The struggling Irving Park Road corridor in Hanover Park faces a unique set of challenges.
Vacancy, turnover and tax rates are high, while the commercial stock is overabundant and aging. Established retail destinations such as Schaumburg lead many village residents to do their shopping elsewhere.
That’s why officials are welcoming a recent Urban Land Institute Chicago report with recommendations aimed at offering a vision and strategy to revitalize the two-mile stretch between Astor Avenue and Wise Road.
