The Cook County Land Bank Authority (CCLBA) will hold a ribbon cutting for the “Buy Back the Block” initiative spearheaded by five community developers in West Woodlawn. The developers—Bonita Harrison, Sean Jones, DaJuan Robinson, Keith Lindsey and Derrick Walker—acquired 11 vacant lots on the 6300 block of South Evans Avenue through the Cook County Land Bank Authority to construct 10 three-flat buildings totaling 30 modern, 3-bedroom/2-bath residences now known as West Woodlawn Pointe. Phase 1 of West Woodlawn Pointe is complete. The development has been completed by a team of African American developers that have transformed the block, created more than 200 construction jobs and reinvested wealth back into the community.
