CONCLUSION
Using housing and rental market data, demographic data, interviews with experts and local stakeholders, ground truthing data collection, and community engagement, this report aims to offer strategies for tackling the issue of preserving the affordability and physical quality of NOAH properties in Detroit’s Oakman Boulevard Community. Along with offering recommendations to Detroit’s Housing and Revitalization Department, we created a transferable data collection methodology so that other Detroit neighborhoods that stand to be impacted by the planned Joe Louis Greenway may be studied. Implementation of these recommended strategies can assist the owners and managers of small multi-family NOAH properties with property maintenance while maintaining affordability. We hope that this report contributes to the diverse set of strategies employed by the City of Detroit and countless community organizations.
