The I-55 Corridor Focus Area Scenario Plan proposes a mix of “Missing Middle” Housing types for the Goshen Center and Goshen Mixed Use Zoning Districts. These housing units could be built ‘For Sale’ or ‘For Rent’.

•The term and strategy known as “Missing Middle” Housing describes the range of housing types that fit between single-family detached homes and mid- to high-rise apartment buildings.

•Because the cost of housing varies based on factors such as size, location, land cost, and other market forces, “Missing Middle” Housing types do not correlate with a specific income bracket, but rather offer housing options ranging in size and density.

•A common characteristic of “Missing Middle” Housing is a development at a scale comparable to a single-family house, but “Missing Middle” Housing always includes more than one housing unit.

•“Missing Middle” Housing types can be incorporated throughout a community as a means of gently building density in existing neighborhoods where it makes sense, and as a way make diverse housing options available across the spectrum of affordability.
