La Herencia

Coming soon! La Herencia Apartments is under construction at 2120 N. Mozart Street in Logan Square. This one-of-a-kind redevelopment brings new life to the historic Humboldt Park United Methodist Church, preserving its 1928 façade while transforming the building into affordable housing. Developed in partnership with Canopy Design + Architecture, the project will preserve 13 existing apartments and add nine new homes marking the first time in Chicago that a church has been preserved and converted into 100% affordable housing.

La Herencia will include five Permanent Supportive Housing apartments for individuals exiting homelessness or living with developmental disabilities, with support services provided by Renaissance Social Services, Inc. Located just three blocks from the CTA Blue Line’s California station, the building offers easy access to public transportation, jobs, schools, and neighborhood amenities. The development also supports the City of Chicago’s Decarbonization Program through the use of all-electric systems and sustainable renovation practices.

La Herencia is expected to be completed in Fall 2026. The waitlist will open toward the end of construction. In the meantime, if you are interested in our other affordable housing units, visit our “How to Apply” page to learn more.
