About Urban Renewal Project Chicago
The Urban Renewal Project Chicago originated as an idea (Project) by URB, inc. to generate attention to the value of donating distressed and abandoned Chicago (Urban) real estate that can be renovated to bring back the vibrancy (Renewal) of a community while doing good for charitable causes.
Over the years, there has been consideration of changing the Urban Renewal Project to a name that may relate to more real estate donors. However, Urban Renewal Project Chicago remains very relevant today. By renovating and repurposing unwanted or abandoned residential, retail, and commercial properties, the initiative helps with the renewal of a neighborhood while supporting a meaningful charitable cause.
