Washington Neighborhood Revitalization
The Washington Neighborhood: Revitalize Initiative is underway! A lot is going on in the Washington Neighborhood - houses with new porches and new owner families, a 'green alley' demonstration project, apartments converted to condominiums, a multicultural family center, and a neighborhood development corporation has been formed. A 'Visioning' process was completed in 2007 and a Neighborhood Plan for the area was adopted by the Council in 2009, with recommendations for citizen and public initiatives.
