Education: Lorain Admiral King High School, Lorain County Community College, Bowling Green State University
LORAIN, Ohio — An agency in Lorain County is taking the first step toward what it believes will transform a neighborhood.
“Its goal is to replace distressed public housing,” LMHA CEO Judy Carlin said. “We have public housing here, Southside Gardens, in our neighborhood but HUD realized about ten years ago that you can’t just rebuild housing, you really have to rebuild the opportunity.” “They talked about a safe place, safe space for kids, community engagement place, something that was lighted, services brought to the community, so we came up with this idea of a container park and there’s five containers and it will bring services to the neighborhood, and it will also allow for the residents to hold gatherings,” she said.
The goal is to create mixed-income housing that’s spread out in the area with the hope of bringing more businesses and essential services within walking distance.
