PCDC is hiring for a Communications & Development Associate to manage the following responsibilities:
Updated July 1, 2024
PCDC is searching for a Project Associate to assist with our community development projects. The projects are located within the Chinatown area, including both affordable housing and mixed-use development. The Community Development Project Associate will support all real estate development activities, including land acquisition, financing, construction management, etc. PCDC’s major developments currently include the Winter Street Project, North 11th Street Homeownership, 800 Vine Senior Housing, and 6th District Police Station and Parking Lot Revitalization.
In addition to equitable development work, the Community Development Project Associate may assist with other neighborhood planning projects in PCDC’s anti-displacement and anti-gentrification work, including:
1. Vine Street Expressway (VSE) Cap/The Chinatown Stitch Project. The VSE, an interstate highway constructed during the urban renewal era, has been a physical and psychological barrier in Chinatown. PCDC is working with the Office of
Transportation, Infrastructure, and Sustainability (OTIS) to conduct a feasibility study on capping the highway in order to reconnect the community. The cap will provide valuable space to create new open spaces and economic development opportunities in Chinatown. PCDC is leading the development and implementation of an Equity Plan to address the impacts of green gentrification, protect small businesses, and promote community stewardship.
2. Responding to the proposed 76ers Arena. The 76ers Arena is the latest threat to Chinatown’s survival. It is proposed to be located only one block away from Chinatown. The proposed $1.3 billion, 18,500-seat arena would exacerbate unaffordable housing prices, traffic congestion, and parking shortage in Chinatown. PCDC is working with local community members to oppose the proposed arena and respond to new developments in the proposal, such as the highly-anticipated community impact studies.
3. Community Land Trust Planning. PCDC is exploring the possibility of developing a community land trust (CLT) in Chinatown. CLTs are community-based non-profit entities that own properties to ensure they are affordability in perpetuity. CLTs have been formed in Chinatowns in LA, NYC, Boston, and Toronto to promote community control over land and neighborhood stabilization.
