Hundreds of thousands of people may get a hand from the Housing Rescue Bill. Once President Bush signs it, the bill could send a lifeline in the form of billions of dollars to lenders and prospective and current homeowners.

 

The Senate passed the bill over the weekend and the White House says as soon as the President gets it, he'll sign it.

 

Brandie and Greg Henderson are almost homeowners. Saturday, the U.S. Senate approved the American Housing Rescue and Foreclosure Prevention Act. It's supposed to help the housing market by getting more people to decide what the Hendersons have. "We were tired of putting our money into something we didn't own," explains Henderson.

Dick Leike knew he had a challenge when his residential real estate company bought the former Anderton's East restaurant on Madison last year.

 

Preserving the original structure at 1901 Madison wasn't going to be easy, but keeping the historical nature of the building would mean a lot to Memphians and the neighborhood, he said.

 

"We feel like we're doing good for the neighborhood ... and trying to do it in such a way that we don't change the real architectural design of the building," said Leike, co-founder of Crye-Leike Realtors.

 

Doing good has come at a price for the company -- a "couple million" dollars in fact. From day one, efforts to save a piece of Memphis' history have been complicate...
