Western Addition Project Areas A-1 and A-2
Consists of photographs and appraisal reports with photographs documenting the redevelopment of the Western Addition from the 1950s through the 1980s. Materials include photographs, negatives, slides, appraisal and sales reports. Of special interest in this collection are a large number of photographs documenting "blighted" conditions of the neighborhood prior to redevelopment, the moving of Victorian houses from one location to another, and the low-income housing projects that were built.
