Through the 1980’s, NWAK was dedicated to neighborhood revitalization in Spenard through private and public partnerships.
In the 1990’s, NWAK acquired, renovated, and built 12 multi-family properties of over 1,200 rental units. Between 1999-2000, we transitioned 116 units from rental housing to home ownership for low-income families. Our program “Owner Built,” gave homeowners credit for putting sweat equity into the projects.
