Urban Survival: A Redefinition

East Oliver Street & McElderry Park: East Oliver Street is a story of the transformation of a former industrial building and surrounding community into an artists community located within the Station North Arts and Entertainment District. McElderry Park is a neighborhood that after decades of crime, drugs, economic deterioration, and overall decline, is one of just 15 neighborhoods nationwide to receive a grant as part of the Obama Administration’s Neighborhood Revitalization Initiative.
