3 Chicagoland s growth over time 1950 Population density Fewer than 2,000 ppl/sq. mi. 2,000 to 10,000 More than 10,000 Transportation Grade-separated highways CTA L Commuter rail

4 Chicagoland s growth over time 1960 Population density Fewer than 2,000 ppl/sq. mi. 2,000 to 10,000 More than 10,000 Transportation Grade-separated highways CTA L Commuter rail

5 Chicagoland s growth over time 1970 Population density Fewer than 2,000 ppl/sq. mi. 2,000 to 10,000 More than 10,000 Transportation Grade-separated highways CTA L Commuter rail

6 Chicagoland s growth over time 1980 Population density Fewer than 2,000 ppl/sq. mi. 2,000 to 10,000 More than 10,000 Transportation Grade-separated highways CTA L Commuter rail

7 Chicagoland s growth over time 1990 Population density Fewer than 2,000 ppl/sq. mi. 2,000 to 10,000 More than 10,000 Transportation Grade-separated highways CTA L Commuter rail

8 Chicagoland s growth over time 2000 Population density Fewer than 2,000 ppl/sq. mi. 2,000 to 10,000 More than 10,000 Transportation Grade-separated highways CTA L Commuter rail

9 Chicagoland s growth over time 2013 Population density Fewer than 2,000 ppl/sq. mi. 2,000 to 10,000 More than 10,000 Transportation Grade-separated highways CTA L Commuter rail

10 Chicagoland s growth over time

11 Major causes of change Changes in personal preferences. Increased ability to afford personal automobiles. Disinvestment in urban centers and rising urban poverty, associated with segregation and racism. Significant federal subsidies for (suburban) home ownership and freeways. Urban renewal and urban freeway programs.

12 Impacts are apparent even in in-demand areas 30% Percent change, 2000 to % 20% 15% 10% 5% 0% Lakeview Lincoln Sq Logan Sq North Center West Town Median rent Median household income

13 Impacts are apparent even in in-demand areas 30% 25% Percent change, 2000 to % 15% 10% 5% 0% -5% -10% Lakeview Lincoln Sq Logan Sq North Center West Town -15% Median rent Median household income Housing units Population

14 What is effective TOD? Fast, competitive transit in many directions Mixed-use development Walkable, landscaped streets Housing for multiple income levels Access to community services and resources

15 Benefits of development near transit Trips to work by transit, walk or bike 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Within a 1/4 mile 1/4 to 1/2 mile Outside a 1/2 mile Walk/Bike Transit 84% higher transit/bike/ walk use nearest to rapid transit People who live and work near transit drive 40% less than others. Residential property values near rapid transit outperform those of others by 40%. Low-income residents near rapid transit have access to 25 to 50% more jobs.

16 MPC s TOD initiative Encouraging TOD in the Chicago region through: Regulatory change Financial incentives Community engagement

17 POLICIES AND FINANCING

18 Zoning laws are limiting, but changing Even in areas near transit, zoning laws limit density and require high levels of parking MPC pushed for, and the City of Chicago passed, a zoning ordinance change for business, downtown, and commercial parcels near train stations that: Reduced parking requirements Increased allowed density

19 Zoning change will bring benefits 60,000 to 70,000 new housing units located near rail transit stations 1,300 on-site affordable units and $150 m for offsite affordable housing $200 m additional revenues for local taxing bodies $450 m in additional retail sales at neighborhood stores and restaurants

20 TOD projects already moving forward 3200 N. Clark 3400 N. Lincoln

21 Remaining challenges Obstacles remain: Much of the region is zoned for low densities. Even in areas that have traditionally featured multi-family buildings, new construction at the same density is typically not allowed. New housing requires lots of parking per unit.

22 A Lakeview example Current conditions - 6,000 sq. ft. lot - 14 residential units - 20,000 sq. ft. built - 0 parking spaces

23 A Lakeview example Zoning limitations: RT-4 district - Only 6 residential units allowed - Rear setback must be 40, street setback 12-3x as much built space as allowed

24 Financing concerns While TOD is going up in high-market parts of the city, it s not adequately serving two key markets: Affordable housing in high-income areas Commercial uses in low-income areas Finding financing sources to address these challenges is a top priority

25 COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

26 Demonstrate TOD Benefits

27 We need to build public support Current public engagement approaches don t work

28 We need to build public support Proactive public engagement is vital.

29 Thanks! Yonah
