DEVELOPER INFO:
Lead Developer: GC Housing Development LLC (GCHD) is a fourth generation, Chicago-based developer of affordable housing. With a focus on affordable housing financed through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, GCHD develops high-quality, affordable, independent living residences for those over the age of 55. Our mission is to develop quality affordable housing that provides the largest units with the most unit and common amenities at the lowest rent. In this approach, our developments remain viable and marketable, and avoid competition throughout the compliance period. GCHD’s co-founders have developed over 700 units of affordable housing units across the state of Illinois. GCHD, through a partnership with, Crane Construction, LLC, provides both development and construction services from start to finish for all of our projects. By retaining control over the entire construction process, including the construction and lease-up phase, GCHD is uniquely suited in the LIHTC community.
