DC Preservation Network Launches Online Preservation Catalog
The DC Preservation Catalog is a database of assisted housing in the District of Columbia maintained by NeighborhoodInfo DC and the Coalition for Nonprofit Housing and Economic Development . On October 11, 2016, we released the first online version of the Preservation Catalog at an event hosted and livestreamed by the Urban Institute. See more about the event here: http://www.urban.org/events/dc-housing-preservation-catalog-release
The Catalog includes property names, locations, and data on the various subsidies that contribute to a property's affordability, including each subsidy's effective expiration dates and the number of income-restricted units. The Catalog is used by a network of city agencies, nonprofits, community organizations, affordable housing developers, and HUD (the DC Preservation Network ) to develop responses and strategies to preserve affordable housing for low-income residents.
