Elm Street Manager, Project Pride

Elm Street Manager, Lisa Keck works with Project Pride children to complete a mural in the Community Garden on Bank Street

The Elm Street Component of the New Communities Program allows communities to integrate a Main Street or downtown revitalization program with a neighborhood renewal strategy that will make it possible to live in better neighborhood without moving. All projects, no matter how small, have a responsibility beyond simply meeting the needs of their users. They have a public responsibility to add to and enhance the neighborhoods in which they are built.  They improve the social and economic viability and quality of life in a targeted distressed area by helping a community regain vitality.  The Elm Street program builds the capacity of communities to sustain development efforts and to adapt to changing economic and social functions. Bradford’s Elm Street Project area now known as Project Pride includes Charlotte Ave, Bank St., Bradford Place, Barbour St. from 94-134, Cole Ave, Howard St., McClellan St., Merrow Ave, Mechanic from 89-112, Bennett/North Bennett from 1-90, North Center St from 2-75, Osborne Pl, Pearl St. from 5-59, State St., School St. from 5-141, and West Washington from 8-150.
