Cleveland Neighborhood Progress

Famicos Foundation is leading the way for senior residents with home repairs and its forthcoming Living at 55 building. Learn how their work revitalizes neighborhoods in this Cleveland Magazine article – which was included in their 20th annual "City Life" issue this month!

Famicos Foundation Creates a Pathway for Housing Stability and Neighborhood Revitalization Cleveland Famicos Foundation supports opportunities for businesses to grow on vacant land in Cleveland. 

Harvard Community Services Center has been holding Estate Planning Clinics, where homeowners learn about their deeds and other inheritances. 👏 This education is so important for protecting wealth and housing in neighborhoods, and it's one of many ways that CDCs partner with resource providers like Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) and Cuyahoga County Treasurer.

ICYMI: MidTown Cleveland, Inc. and its partners broke ground on the Warner & Swasey redevelopment, the largest affordable housing investment in city history. Decades in the making, this project will transform the vacant landmark on E. 55th Street with 112 apartments.

This spring, we volunteered to show our love for Cleveland in more ways. Our Real Estate team prepared furnishings for newly housed neighbors at Humble Design Cleveland. Our Village Capital Corporation team gave away bicycles to Intergenerational Schools students. And our whole staff assembled groceries at the Greater Cleveland Food Bank.

Small business owners: If you're looking for commercial space and want to be part of the Detroit Shoreway neighborhood, then see these two units that Northwest Neighborhoods CDC has available in its Gordon Square Arcade. Apply by sending your business plan to Akshay at [email protected] by June 15.

We're showing love AND real progress with $3.2 million invested in homes through our Middle Neighborhood Initiative! By renovating vacant houses and selling to residents, we're stabilizing neighborhoods and fighting back against predatory investors.
