Winston-Salem Choice Neighborhood

Welcome to the Winston-Salem CNI project outreach site!

Thanks for visiting our new website. We're using this platform to help you follow and participate in the planning and implementation process for Winston-Salem Choice Neighborhoods Project.

What's in the Works

Working in hand in hand with our residents and community stakeholders, and catalyzed by a $30m grant award from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the City of Winston-Salem (City) and the Housing Authority of Winston-Salem (HAWS) have embarked upon a 6-year journey to revitalize and transform the Northeast community of Winston-Salem. In order to facilitate the overall $750m Choice Neighborhood Initiative Project, HAWS has retained the services of McCormack Baron Salazar and Urban Strategies, Inc to assist in the implementation of this ambitious community-wide transformation effort. Our residents, community stakeholders, the City and HAWS have committed to pursue the revitalization of the Cleveland Avenue neighborhood in a manner that honors and builds upon the strengths and integrity of the existing community so that a brighter, more vibrant future can be fully realized. Informed by community and resident input, the CNI project envisions significant investments in new, mixed income housing, resident support services and neighborhood improvements, all of which will serve as the foundational cornerstones of transformation process. Please take a few moments to review this website, learn more about what this transformation process entails and provide your thoughts and comments concerning our path forward!

Please know, this project is not a typical housing redevelopment project as has been seen in the past; this is a community informed neighborhood transformation effort that includes redevelopment and So Much More !
