Transformation
CELEBRATING FIVE
YEARS OF COMMITMENT, LEADERSHIP, AND SERVICE!
In 2001, the community
around the commercial triangle of Moncrief Rd,
Myrtle Ave,
and MLK Expressway enjoyed new commercial development
due to the work of Urban Core Enterprise an affiliate
of the Black Business Investment Corp. (BBIC).
Collaboration between LISC
Jacksonville, The 29th and Chase Neighborhood
Association
and the BBIC helped to form Northwest Jacksonville
Community Development Corporation (NJCDC).
NJCDC has spearheaded efforts
to develop a Neighborhood Action Plan for the
29th and Chase Neighborhood and surrounding areas,
bringing new resources to the community.
Through NJCDC efforts,
the neighborhood has seen the redevelopment of
homes, stronger community leadership and a greater
capacity to influence outside organizations seeking
to create change in Northwest Jacksonville.
