GrowHouse Community Design + Development Group uses the intersections of urban planning, design, storytelling and technology to fight displacement. They build community wealth by allowing young Black creatives and their allies to become developers of our own neighborhood through collective ownership of artistic production and a portfolio of neighborhood real estate and land, businesses, and cultural institutions.
