 | | Representing the Evanston Community Development Association, an alliance of six local churches whose mission is “affordable housing and neighborhood renewal,” Kenneth Banks said the group had acquired the vacant lot at the corner of Emerson Street and Hovland Court, on which affordable housing would be built. |
