Information
Organization's Own Description:
The Pontchartrain Park Community Development Corporation (PPCDC) is a Louisiana non-profit corporation established to protect and restore New Orleans' historic Pontchartrain Park community. The PPCDC was formed by former Pontchartrain Park residents whose parents still reside in the park and is led by former resident and acclaimed actor, Wendell Pierce.
In December 2007, Wendell Pierce issued a "Call to Action" to the residents of Pontchartrain Park in response to the plans by the New Orleans Redevelopment Authority (NORA) to issue an RFP for developers to redevelop Pontchartrain Park. Residents expressed their desire to participate in the planning and decisions that would impact their community.
Several weeks later, the Pontchartrain Park Community Development Corporation (PPCDC) was formed. The PPCDC provides a vehicle for community residents and their associations to negotiate and plan for development activity in their neighborhood.
Today the PPCDC's primary project is to build affordable, new replacement homes in Pontchartrain Park.
