Portion of the East End Historic District
Newburgh
improved
hreat: deterioration and disinvestment
The neighborhood of early and mid 19th century, modest Federal Style dwellings and rowhouses west of Washington’s Headquarters has been spiraling towards blight over the past two decades. This area was once a vibrant African-American neighborhood, but now many of the structures stand vacant. A high degree of vandalism and destruction from exposure to the weather have taken their toll on this historically, culturally and architecturally significant neighborhood. Despite recent efforts to stabilize the East End, the neighborhood continues to suffer from disinvestment.
