Preserving Owners to Preserve NOAH: Markets, People and Strategies in Chicago and Los Angeles

Tuesday, April 20, 3:00pm CT Join The Preservation Compact, the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, and the Commissioner of the City of Chicago Department of Housing for a discussion about preserving Naturally Occurring Affordable Housing (NOAH). This webinar will highlight two sets of NOAH preservation strategies: a new initiative in South Los Angeles to support local rental property owners with smaller portfolios, and several existing NOAH efforts in Chicago. By digging into targeted approaches, this panel will illustrate how different owner and market dynamics drive thorny challenges – and concrete solutions – to preserve the NOAH stock. Panelists include: Ruby Bolaria Shifrin, Director of Housing Affordability, Chan Zuckerberg Initiative Marisa Novara, Commissioner of the Department of Housing, City of Chicago Jack Markowski, President, Community Investment Corporation Stephen Rich, Jr., Blue Whale Collective
