Revitalizing Memphis. Restoring Pride.
Located at the intersection of Scutterfield and New Chicago, the bartonrow Project is a targeted initiative to transform vacant, blighted lots into a vibrant community asset. Working alongside partners like the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) and the Urban Arts Commission, we are turning neglected land into the "bartonrow Pocket Park."
Impact: Creating greenspace, reducing blight, and fostering a safe gathering place for North Memphis families.
Focused on the historic Barton Street corridor, this project aims to stabilize and restore the residential fabric of the neighborhood. The Barton Project focuses on "Infill with Integrity"—renovating existing structures to preserve the architectural history of Memphis while introducing modern, energy-efficient affordable housing standards.
Impact: Increasing housing density, preserving local history, and providing pathways to homeownership.
