Revitalizing Syracuse: The Land Bank and Blueprint 15 Partnership

The Land Bank’s Role in Community Development.

The Land Bank in Syracuse holds around 100 properties in the South Side. These properties were foreclosed on by the city due to unpaid taxes or unsafe conditions. The challenge is to improve the community without triggering aggressive gentrification.

Blueprint 15’s Impact on Neighborhood Revitalization.

Blueprint 15, a non-profit organization, plays a crucial role in the South Side neighborhood’s revitalization efforts. Although it doesn’t own land, it requested the right of first refusal on specific properties in tract 42 from the Land Bank. The best tract in Syracuse.
