The housing projects of Newark, New Jersey which inspired the city's nickname, Brick City, were once a prominent part of the cityscape.[1][2]Both low-rise and high rise public housing, were built predominately in the 1940s, 50s, and 60s as city leaders took full advantage of the federal government covering 100% of the building costs for the projects.[3] In many cases swaths of land were cleared for urban renewal to make way for the projects. Many of the larger projects built primarily in the 2nd half of the 20th century have since been razed some by explosive demolition..[4] [5]

by 1992 22 were empty[6]

While there are still many public housing projects throughout the city, design has shifted to smaller townhouse style homes. Funding for replacing the projects has ben made possible with HOPE VI grants.http://www.nytimes.com/2000/02/13/nyregion/public-housing-s-new-face-will-it-lift-the-urban-poor.html?pagewanted=all&src=pm

The replacement of housing projects with small scale buildings, and in some cases home ownership, has transformed some residential neighborhoods.[7]

Prudential Apartments and Newark Housing Authority

[edit]
Prudential Apartments, 1940

In 1928, Mayor of Newark Jerome T. Congleton called on Prudential to contribute to improve housing for of Newark's large working population. A law passed in the state legislature enabled Prudential to invest in real estate and built four "model tenements", the Harrison and Douglas Apartments (reserved for blacks) in the Third Ward; a complex in Weequahic on Frelinghuysen Avenue; and the Prudential Apartments in the Ironbound.[8] [9]

The Newark Housing Authority was created in 1937[10] soon after the passage of the Housing Act of 1937 and originally built segregated housing.[11][12] The agency owns and/or operates thousands of apartments in the city, which it classifies as family residences[13] or senior/disabled residences.[14]

Newark was among the earliest cities in the United States to implement and policy of urban renewal, which it began in 1949.[15]

Demolition and replacement

[edit]

The Hope VI program, created in 1992, was initiated in response to the physical deterioration of public housing units. The program rebuilds housing projects with an emphasis on mixed-income developments rather than projects which concentrate poorer households in one area.[16]


In 1999, Andrew Cuomo, Secretary of Housing and Urban Development said that the projects were "temporary triumphs", but tended to "isolate the poor from the rest of society". The philosophy and subsequent policy changes in public housing were later characterized as having the "the wrong intent from the beginning and should be replaced with smaller, low-rise, low-density places where people want to live.. President Clinton said, When public housing makes the statement of exclusion and isolation, tear it down and don't repaint it, put in new windows or new fences,'[17]

The policy was aggresssviely implemented during the adminstration of Mayor of Sharpe James..

"Court Enforces One-for-One Replacement in Public Housing Settlement Agreement". 35 (3). March 2005. Retrieved 2013-12-28. On January 21, 2005, Legal Services of New Jersey successfully obtained an order from a federal district court in New Jersey that prohibits the Newark Housing Authority (NHA) from counting homeownership units as replacement units for units in two Newark developments that the agency previously demolished. The decision followed the Newark Coalition for Low Income Housing's (NCLIH) letter brief, which sought to enforce regulations and the settlement agreements between the plaintiffs, NHA and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). This article provide a brief background of the case, a discussion of the regulatory and statutory amendments, the plaintiffs' and defendants' arguments, and the court's decision. {{cite journal}}: Cite journal requires |journal= (help)


It continued during the Cory Booker's mayoralty, but with some resistence since he was a resident of the one of the few remaining mid-rise projects.

The changes at Seth Boyden Terrace are the latest wave in the ongoing transformation of Newark's public housing, a saga that stretches back more than two decades, has resulted in the demolition of more than 4,000 apartments and triggered numerous legal challenges on behalf of aggrieved tenants.

The city's notorious high-rise projects came down first in a series of demolitions that began in the 1990s and continued far into the 2000s. Now housing officials have turned their attention to problem-plagued low-rise developments. Two complexes - Baxter Terrace along Orange Street and Felix Fuld on Muhammad Ali Avenue - already have been emptied of tenants. Hyatt Court on Roanoke Avenue is much like Seth Boyden, a haunting combination of sealed buildings and inhabited apartments.[18]
