New London's West Street Location is the
Start of 13-house Neighborhood Stabilization Program Effort
APRIL 1, 2010 | New London - As state and local dignitaries arrived at a two-family house on West Street Wednesday for a showing of the first of 13 buildings that are being rehabilitated with federal stimulus money, a round of cheers went up for the new owners. Just hours before, a family signed a contract for $151,000 for the house at 69 West St.
"The closing is scheduled for the second week of May,'' said Julie M. Savin of NeighborWorks New Horizons, which turned the foreclosed-upon and vacant house into a pristine living area with refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint, new carpets, appliances and back decks. The project was funded with a portion of an $867,850 grant from the federal Neighborhood Stabilization Program. The city distributed the grant money to four organizations - NeighborWorks, H.O.P.E Inc., Eastern Connecticut Housing Opportunities and Habitat for Humanity - which have been renovating 13 houses throughout the city. >> READ MORE
