Visionary Planning for Livability

Jordan Downs Public Housing Redevelopment

The Jordan Downs Public Housing Redevelopment Project is an excellent illustration of the Compass Blueprint Livability Principle. Through a grassroots outreach approach, and a one-for-one replacement strategy to avoid displacement, the Housing Authority of the City of Los Angeles has committed to transforming a once isolated, barrack-style community into a vibrant, sustainable urban village.
