You can, in one of Jacksonville's very own neighborhoods!
In case you haven't heard, the historic neighborhood of Riverside and Avondale was named one of the top ten neighborhoods to live in 2010 by the APA (American Planning Association) and is the first neighborhood in Florida to win this honor!
Needless to say everyone in this neighborhood is very honored. We at the Riverside Avondale Development Organization are also very privileged to take part in the upkeep of this prestigious title.
RADO has provided over 20 affordable homes in the Riverside neighborhood. These homes have either been masterfully renovated to their original grandeur or are historically-accurate, newly built homes. The new construction homes we provide offer historic exterior features, with modern day amenities in the interior.We are honored to say that once built, one would think that one of our new homes was one of our renovations!
RADO is very determined to keep the overall livability of the neighborhood first rate. We are dedicated to reinforcing historic preservation , creating and preserving attainable quality housing for low to moderate income families, increasing public safety, and much more. We understand and appreciate how enjoyable and diverse this neighborhood is and how out of reach it may be for some families. We feel that everyone should have a chance at owning their own home in the neighborhood they desire.
For the past year we have been working under the city's Neighborhood Stabilization Program which allowed us to branch out beyond Riverside, but starting in 2011 we will go back to our roots and once again be able build and renovate in the historic neighborhoods of Riverside and Murray Hill.
