What's New
In order to continue the revitalization of the communities it serves, the CRA/LA is reviewing seven of the nine South Los Angeles redevelopment project areas. This review includes a complete analysis of the Redevelopment Plans in each project area for potential plan amendments to:

block2 Explore enlarging the existing project areas,
block2 Merge certain project areas to gain greater economic strength and additional flexibility in the deployment of staff and financial resources, and
block2 Capture additional growth opportunity areas.

Prior to amending the Plans, physical and economic conditions will be analyzed to identify any adverse conditions that may exist until the Summer of 2007.

The Broadway/Manchester Recovery Redevelopment Project was adopted on December 19, 1994. It is located approximately ten miles south of downtown Los Angeles, in Council Districts 8 and 9. It is one of several redevelopment projects adopted in response to the civil unrest of 1992. The Project Area generally encompasses the commercial corridors of Broadway between 84th Place and 102nd Street and Manchester Avenue between the Harbor Freeway and Central Avenue.

Though the civil disturbance had a devastating impact on the community, the community’s commercial corridors have been in a state of deterioration for several decades. Redevelopment goals are aimed at turning these commercial corridors into viable and thriving centers of economic prosperity, providing the community access to goods and services and employment opportunities.

The Agency has proceeded with the active participation by the Community Advisory Committee (CAC), to implement the Plan to the extent possible given extremely limited resources.
