Mission:
Avenue CDC meets the tremendous need for affordable housing and economic opportunities for low-income residents in inner-city Houston. In 1991, residents of Houston''s Old Sixth Ward founded Avenue CDC in order to develop affordable housing and preserve the historic architecture of the Sixth Ward National Register Historic District, which is located, directly northwest of Houston''s Downtown.

Avenue CDC''s first project was a collaborative effort with the Greater Houston Preservation Alliance to rehabilitate two historic Sixth Ward homes for low-income homebuyers. In response to requests from civic clubs from surrounding neighborhoods, Avenue CDC has since expanded its target area to include the entire Washington Avenue and Near Northside communities, located directly North and Northwest of Houston''s downtown. Avenue CDC''s diverse board is representative of the community it serves. Avenue CDC''s by-laws require that two-thirds of the Board members live or work in the community. Board members include attorneys, accountants, architects, and small business owners.
