Local developer Daniel Paul Cavanagh pitches owner-occupied housing to redevelopment commission
Daniel Paul Cavanagh, a long-time Gary property owner, told the Redevelopment Commission he wants to build owner-occupied 2–3 bedroom homes and seeks city parcels through the Grow/Gary process; commissioners pressed him on scale, build costs and appraisal gaps.
The full story
Daniel Paul Cavanagh, who introduced himself as a longtime Gary real-estate investor, told the commission he moved to Gary 40 years ago and has bought and sold thousands of houses in the city. "I had $500 in my pocket," Cavanagh said, describing his start in local housing. He said he currently owns roughly "220 or 30" properties in Gary and that his objective is to build homes for purchase, not to add rental stock: "I'm not looking for tenants." (Daniel Paul Cavanagh)
