Summary of the Revitalization Strategy The boundaries of the revitalization strategy area include
First Street on the north, Riverside on the east, Twelfth Street on the south, and Sylvania on the west.

adjacency to downtown Fort Worth, the Riverside Community Center, Gid Hooper Park, Versia L.
Williams Elementary School, and the neighborhood churches. The area also has an abundance of
vacant land suitable for redevelopment. Two large, active neighborhood associations are also strong
assets to the community
Improvement activities in the revitalization strategy include infill housing development, housing
rehabilitation, minor home repair, homebuyer assistance, expansion of the Riverside Community
Center, and improvements to Gid Hooper Park.
Staff is recommending the allocation of $877,300 00 now The balance of $322,700 00 will be
