Town of Normal
A union-backed development group is moving forward with a $9 million affordable senior housing project that would use the old TB Sanatorium in Normal.
The Laborers Home Development Corporation has done a lot of senior housing and affordable family housing. The goal is to provide jobs for Laborers International union workers in the Midwest region. Laborers Home Corporation representative Tim Ryan said McLean County government approached the firm about the idea. We rehabbed a high school into senior apartments. I believe the county caught wind of that and asked if we would consider looking at this project for that same population, said Ryan.
