Overview
Freedom West Homes is a nonprofit limited equity housing cooperative formed in the late 1960's in response to government sponsored "Urban Renewal" which displaced over 20,000 predominately African American Fillmore District residents and closed over 800 businesses. Reverend J. Austell Hall of the Bethel AME Church lead the creation of the Co-Op as a way to mitigate the losses of urban renewal and maintain some sort of ownership for the local community.
