Econmic Development

The North End Neighborhood Organization – District 6 serves as the community development organization for the North End. Our approach to economic development focuses on small business support as a foundation for improving quality of life. This includes helping businesses create and retain jobs, build wealth, and contribute to a vibrant, stable neighborhood economy. We provide direct assistance through grants and/or loans to local businesses to support necessary property and equipment improvements that strengthen both individual businesses and the broader community.
