In July o 2006, the Broadmoor Improvement

Association created the Broadmoor Devel-opment Corporation (BDC) in response to a

growing demand or housing advocacy in thewake o Hurricane Katrina. The BDC is a non-

proft community development corporationwhose mission is to enhance the economic

well-being o the neighborhood.

Between 2006 and 2010, Broadmoor cast awide net to bring as many residents back as

quickly as possible. This strategy ocused on

providing assistance or residents to rebuildtheir homes, as well as making the neighbor-

hood a welcoming and sae place to return orrelocate to.

In 2010, the BDC recognized the need or a

recalibrated strategy to assist the 15 percento neighborhood properties which remained

unrecovered. The current development strat-

egy, which incorporates best practices recog-

nized by the Brookings Institute, Harvard Ken-nedy School, and the Greater New Orleans

Neighborhood Data Center (GNONDC), usesa combination o interventions and resources

in selected zones targeted or development.Examples o these interventions include reno-

vations o occupied and vacant houses, con-struction o infll housing, advocacy or demo-

lition o unsalvageable houses, and greening

and maintenance o vacant lots.

The zones are chosen through a spatial anal-ysis that considers location, physical condi-

tions and proximity to community assets. Thegoal o BDCs current programmatic initia-

tives is to create a healthy, diverse, and sus-tainable neighborhood by minimizing blight,

building homeowner assets and promotingprivate investment.
