Featured Media
To track affordable rental housing in the District of Columbia, the D.C. Preservation Network will create an online tool.
By combining federal and local data on subsidized housing with on-the-ground information about individual buildings from D.C. agencies, advocates and residents, it will enable information sharing and real-time collaboration on the affordability of specific buildings. Nonprofit housing advocacy organizations will use the information to focus tenant organizing and landlord outreach to properties most at risk.
