National Public Housing Museum breaks ground in Little Italy

For 15 years, the museum has been in the planning and development stage and will finally open to the public in 2023.

Soon Chicago will have a new museum telling the story of public housing and the people who live there.. It will be built in the last remaining building of the historic Jane Addams Homes public housing complex in Little Italy, which housed and taught immigrants in Chicago.

The museum creators want to tell the story of public housing in this country, which includes every race, ethnicity, age and religion. That story includes hearing from some who grew up public housing and share the good, and the bad, of this piece of history. "I think we have an American story that we need to tell, too; and need to tell it through peoples lives, people who lived there," Fischer said.The National Public Housing Museum also will feature 15 mixed-income apartments, run by the Chicago Housing Authority and developer Related Midwest.

The museum has been in the planning and development stage for 15 years, and is expected to open to the public next year.
