Loyola University is reviving its vacant St. Ignatius campus with a bold two-part plan: demolishing an old school to build a 64-unit residence hall for upperclassmen and grad students, freeing up neighborhood apartments, while transforming the church and rectory into a social services hub offering shelter, daycare, and food for Spanish-speaking women. Backed by a major donation and rent-free space, this partnership with the Ignatian Mission Center aims to tackle student housing shortages and community service gaps—despite local concerns over past land use. Construction could start in 2027, with services launching soon after, turning a forgotten campus into a vital neighborhood resource.
