The Park DuValle neighborhood, once dominated by 1100 public housing units, is being transformed into a mixed-income neighborhood in Louisville’s west end. The goal of the HOPE VI plan is to build a series of traditional neighborhoods with rental and home ownership opportunities for a wide range of income groups. The greatest challenge has been to successfully provide public housing for those in need while simultaneously attracting middle-income home buyers to the neighborhood.
UDA prepared an area-wide Master Plan for the effort that ties in adjacent communities and creates a new commercial center with shops and services for the residential neighborhoods. In addition to the Master Plan, Urban Design Associates created a UDA Pattern Book to guide the design of the housing and to establish the character of each neighborhood. By using the images and forms identified with successful, traditional Louisville neighborhoods, Park DuValle has become attractive to a broad cross section of residents in the Louisville market. This comprehensive approach to place-making has reassured residents and stakeholders, turned their initial skepticism into support, and united a community that can take pride in its rebirth.
