Planned developments, and growing business owners along with a re-emerging nightlife, flagships and franchises is being added to the community’s growth. With its unique history and location, recovering residential market, planned developments, and steadfast business owners whose fortunes are inextricably tied to the community’s growth, it’s becoming increasingly apparent that Washington Park and Bronzeville is a reemerging neighborhood bound to bloom bigger than it was before in the 50's and 60's.
