The Chatham Executive Building formerly the Sister Clara Muhammad Building is considered one the "greenest buildings on the Southside of Chicago. Mr.Clarence and Mrs Lisa Hall, who owned several other commercial buildings on 79th were urged to purchase this building by the community and received verbal commitments from local business people to lease space.
The City of Chicago who owned the building prolonged the transfer of ownership and by the time the Hall's were able to complete the economic climate had dramatically changed and many who made commitments moved on. The building has been vacant for several years and is currently up for sale.
Here is the link from the Sixth Ward Blog post and also what their webpage said about the building.
