City Launches Southeast Housing Market Potential Study

A study on the potential of the housing market in southeast Fort Wayne is underway.

The study will examine how the City and developers can work together to rebuild and revitalize urban core neighborhoods. The new study will complement the recently completed downtown housing study that shows the downtown area could support up to 387 new market-rate housing units and 127 affordable housing units per year.

Zimmerman/Volk Associates, Inc. is conducting the Southeast Housing Market Potential Study, which will be complete in June. The process includes public input as well as focus group discussions.

Residents interested in giving input on Fort Wayne's housing needs can fill out an online survey. Click here to participate in the survey.
