REACH Avondale
REACH (Rehab Across Cincinnati and Hamilton County) Avondale is a joint partnership between The Port of Greater Cincinnati Development Authority and Hamilton County whose aim is to improve children’s health and housing in the neighborhood. Avondale became a neighborhood of focus for The Port in 2018 after receiving significant support from Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center.
The Port’s planning for new, infill and rehabbed housing surrounding Rockdale and South Avondale schools began in 2018 with outreach to Avondale Development Corporation, Avondale Community Council and the neighborhood at large. ADC serves as co-developer and manages resident engagement and communications. Projects either underway or in the planning stage include rehab work on Wilson Avenue and new construction on Haven Street and Forest and Eden avenues. Over the course of the next three years, REACH will either rehab or build 20 homes in the focus area.
ADC is proud to partner with The Port and Cincinnati Children’s on this important effort.
