Certainly the impact would be greater than if the extension were in an expressway median.
The Green Line is sort of a poor example, the West Side stations are constrained by lots of industrial zoning and the South Side stations have in fact seen a lot of redevelopment (although there could certainly be a lot more).
I hope other city departments will work together to steer funding towards social housing and other forms of development near the new stations.
