Saint Luke Renaissance – Greenview Place sits as the crown jewel in the Lakeview Senior Campus and is bringing new choices to Chicago’s elder population. With thoughtful, beautiful design, amenities and finishes, Greenview Place gives our elders the option to stay in their neighborhood and enjoy living where hospitality isn’t just a word—it’s a philosophy and a way of doing business. Renaissance has been creating senior housing neighborhoods for more than a decade, bringing years of experience in developing communities where people want to live, enjoy life and be happy.

Seniors at all income levels can enjoy semi-independent living here at Greenview, without worry that the costs will break the bank. Our market units are at an affordable rate, offering lovely studio and one bedroom units. The supportive living program allows those seniors on limited incomes to choose Greenview, and still receive assistance with activities of daily living. These personal services are paid through a State of Illinois program; ask our Marketing Director for details.

We've partnered with Saint Luke Housing Ministries (SLHM) and Lutheran Life Communities (LLC) to bring supportive living to Lakeview. SLHM and its partner the Evangelical Church of Saint Luke have been in Lakeview since 1874, a solid and enduring presence deeply vested in the neighborhood. LLC is a recognized industry leader in its mission to provide vibrant, grace-filled living to seniors since the 19th century.

Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC)

Since this property has received funding in part through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, a certain number of units are set aside for lower income households. Households must earn either less than 50% or 60% of the area median income (depending on the set-aside option chosen by the property owner) to qualify for these units. Rents in these units are capped at a maximum of 30% of the set-aside area median income (adjusted for unit size). Some rental units in this property may not be subject to LIHTC and therefore have higher rents and no maximum household income requirement.

HOME Investment Partnerships Program

This project has received some funding from a participating jurisdiction (local or state government agency) through the HUD HOME Investments Partnerships Program (HOME). In projects with five or more HOME-assisted units, at least 20% of these units must be occupied by families earning 50% or less of area median income (AMI). All other HOME-assisted units must be occupied by families earning 80% or less of AMI, but in practice most are reserved for families earning 60% or less AMI. Maximum monthly rent is capped with a Low HOME Rent for <50% AMI units and a High HOME Rent for the remaining HOME-assisted units. Contact the property directly for the specific dollar amount of these rent caps.
