CHICAGO — AFL-CIO Housing Investment Trust has provided $11 million to fund the rehabilitation of two affordable housing properties in Chicago. In the city's Uptown community, the funds will support much-needed improvements at Hazel Winthrop Apartments, a four-building development constructed a century ago. In the South Lakefront area, $8.8 million will be used to renovate the Bronzeville Senior Apartments, an 11-story high-rise. The projects will include exterior and interior repairs and energy-conserving retrofits, such as greater insulation and more efficient energy systems.
