NOS QUEDAMOS COMPLETES 'SOUTH BRONX LAND & COMMUNITY RESOURCE' STUDY



NOS QUEDAMOS COMPLETES 'SOUTH BRONX LAND & COMMUNITY RESOURCE' STUDY
We Stay/Nos Quedamos is proud to announce the completion and release of the South Bronx Land and Community Resource Trust (SBxLCRT) Study, a blueprint and action plan for the formation of a community-led land trust held in the public interest in the Melrose section of the South Bronx.

 At the core of SBxLCRT is a modular strategic plan for long-term community land ownership that mitigates housing anxiety in the region, and creates much-needed Resiliency Hubs that facilitate essential resources and services before, during, or after a natural hazard event or emergency.

The plan forward also provides for the incremental community-wide expansion of technological resource such as low-cost broadband and solar capacities that dovetail seamlessly with Nos Quedamos' partnership with Governor Cuomo on the Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI).

Building on previous research and development work, the 12-month study was led by Nos Quedamos in partnership with Hester Street, who was the study's primary technical assistance provider, and NYC Mayor's Office of Environmental Remediation (OER). SBxLCRT is the organic next level to Nos Quedamos' historically innovative and precedent-setting Melrose Commons Urban Renewal Plan
