The Collaborative Architecture, Urbanism, and Sustainability Web Archive (CAUSEWAY) is a joint initiative by the art and architecture librarians at Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Johns Hopkins, Harvard, Princeton, and Yale universities, and the universities of Chicago and Pennsylvania, under the auspices of the Ivy Plus Libraries Confederation.

Title: Slavic Village Rediscovered

URL: http://slavicvillagehomes.org/

Description: "Slavic Village Rediscovered concentrates its efforts within a 530-acre section of Slavic Village. We partner with lenders, servicers, and public entities in the area to acquire large numbers of structurally-sound blighted, at risk, or vacant properties in this target area of Slavic Village. We then provide major updates to their construction and interior, giving them new life as family-friendly affordable homes. By collaborating in such a way, the Slavic Village Rediscovered steadies market volatility, stabilizes the larger community, and matches home-buyers with a move-in-ready home at a great price."
