Long-Delayed Plans For Bronzeville Pete’s Fresh Market To Go Before City Panel Next Month

A plan to build a Pete’s Fresh Market in Bronzeville, delayed for over six years, is set to be presented to Chicago’s Plan Commission on August 20. Developer Zeb McLaurin aims to secure land approval for the grocery store and retail spaces on the former Stateway Gardens site, with construction potentially starting in 2027 after resolving ownership disputes involving the city, Chicago Housing Authority, and Chicago Public Schools.
