The ceremony marked the onset of construction of the first 214 units to be built between Truman Road and 17th Street, from Woodland Avenue to Euclid Avenue. Among those in attendance were Louneer Pemberton, executive director of the Urban League, and Mayor H. Roe Bartle.

The city then transferred it to Flaherty & Collins Properties and Twelfth Street Heritage Development Corp. for a $275 million redevelopment project.
