Your real odds
CDA deployed $60 million across only six projects in 2025, which works out to roughly $10 million per deal on average.
Their recent investments reach into the tens of millions, including a $28 million commitment to West Side Market, so smaller startups face a high bar and need a substantial community development angle to be competitive.
