Description
The Rosewood Choice Neighborhoods Plan provides a roadmap for revitalization of HACA’s Rosewood Courts property and enhancement of the surrounding neighborhood to re-establish Rosewood as one of Austin’s complete communities. A complete community is one that is livable, mobile and connected, prosperous, educated, creative, natural and sustainable, and one that values and respects people. The overarching goal of the Choice Neighborhoods planning initiative is for coordinated efforts to stimulate strategic investment in assets that will improve the quality of life for all individuals in the target neighborhood, with a specific focus on those residents with the lowest-incomes and greatest needs.

HACA proposed the creation of a new eight-building historic district for Rosewood Courts that has been unanimously approved by the City of Austin’s Historic Landmark Commission, Planning Commission, and City Council.
