ALABAMA PLAZA

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Tennessee Technology Center of Memphis partnered the City of Memphis to demolish the Alabama Plaza Apartments in order to expand their campus. The demolition was funded with Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. The acquisition, abatement, and demolition of 29 units of dilapidated multi-family housing was conducted to further the development of the Tennessee Technology Center of Memphis. The demolition of the dilapidated housing would allow the Tennessee Technology Center of Memphis the opportunity to expand their campus and allow students more opportunity for the technical training. This expansion will impact the development of the local workforce by allowing the TN Technology Center to provide additional high quality training that is accessible and economical for local students.
