9Howard University LeDroit Park Initiative,
Washington, DC
The emergence of the Howard University LeDroit
Park Initiative coincided with the investment of
over 160 million in housing, commercial and
public benefit development in the LeDroit Park/ U
Street community. This includes over 70 million
in investment created by the Initiative. Investmen
t in housing, retail, dining and commercial
establishments gave rise to new jobs, more
tourism, increasing revenues for the city, and a
renewed sense of community for one of Washington,
DCs most historic neighborhoods.
10In 1995, a partnership between Howard University
and Fannie Mae was formed. The neighborhood
population was approximately 18,700 with a median
household income of approximately 34,550 and a
median home value of 128,203. Approximately 28
of the population had incomes under 15,000 and
approximately 17.2 of the population could
qualify to purchase a home priced at the median
home value. The results of the partnership are
apparent as the once blighted neighborhood has
been transformed into one that attracted the
famous African-Americans who resided there in the
past. Participants in this effort have always
envisioned the Howard-sponsored redevelopment as
a catalyst for other private and publicly
sponsored revitalization activities in the
neighborhoods and along the Georgia Avenue
Corridor.
