West End Project Case Study

The West End I and West End II Projects were a combined effort from the West Elmwood Housing Development Corporation. The renovated houses were completed around 1992-1993 and transformed into multifamily rental and owner-occupied homes.

This page displays the GIS maps of crime before and after renovation in the West End I and II Project, as well as the contextual maps of crime throughout the West End.
