The Park Boulevard Master Plan rethought the site of one of Chicago’s most blighted projects. The plan called for a mix of housing types and designs, different levels of affordability, as well as for the reintegration of the site back into Chicago’s street grid. The idea was to increase the potential for creating a livable neighborhood on what had previously been a dysfunctional urban no man's land.

In September of 2008, HUD awarded a 20 million dollar grant to the Chicago Housing Authority to continue the revitalization of the former Stateway Gardens Public Housing.
