Abstract

Heath Street is the dividing line between Jamaica Plain and Mission Hill sections of Roxbury, Massachusetts (US). The implementation of a revitalization project along this corridor is an important step in the restoration of the adjacent neighborhoods. By focusing on crime reduction in particular prostitution and drug dealing and neighborhood cleanups are important first steps to take. Heath Street Neighbors, a community based organizing effort, was created to achieve these short-term goals. This report outlines the early phases of this effort. (Library-derived description)
