The Northwest Side Community Development Corporation (NWSCDC)
is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to revitalizing Milwaukee's Northwest side. The
bulk of the collection documents the NWSCDC's economic development strategies. The
collection contains meeting minutes and correspondence which date to the NWSCDC's founding
in 1983. Many of the organization's development programs have their own meeting minutes and
correspondence. Also included are photographs, newsletters, grant proposals, reports, and
news clippings that document the NWSCDC's achievements. Major accomplishments include the
Villard Avenue Revitalization Project, renovating an old fire house into a community center,
real estate developments, and business recruitment and retention. Community development
projects include the building of an alternative high school, youth services, neighborhood
safety, and job creation and placement.
