about this project

This transformative project reimagines 700 MLK as a modern, functional, and welcoming home that blends historical significance with contemporary living. Part of Black Wall Street Southeast Greensboro’s “Capture and Convey” Initiative, this property is set to become a beacon of progress in the revitalization of Southeast Greensboro.

Planned Features:

• Spacious Layout:
  The renovation will result in a two-story home featuring multiple bedrooms, bathrooms, and thoughtfully designed living spaces perfect for families or shared living arrangements.
• Contemporary Design:
  The floor plans prioritize open, connected spaces such as a modern kitchen, dining area, and family room on the main floor.
• Private Comfort:
  The upper level includes private bedrooms, a loft, and a Jack-and-Jill bathroom to provide comfort and functionality for future residents.
• Outdoor Living:
  The home will include a welcoming front porch, a rear patio for gatherings, and an upper balcony, offering a variety of outdoor living options.
• Modern Amenities:
  The renovation includes energy-efficient systems, contemporary finishes, and purposeful storage solutions like walk-in closets and a pantry.

Our Vision:
700 MLK represents our commitment to creating equitable opportunities in housing and development for BIPOC communities. Through projects like this, we aim to restore and enhance the vibrancy of neighborhoods deeply impacted by systemic inequalities.
