ARCO
About the project
Since 2004, Price Hill Will has been dedicated to serving the greater Price Hill area by enacting physical, civic, economic, and social impact within the community. A not-for-profit community development corporation, Price Hill Will is a local leader in creative placemaking, and specializes in community building, economic development, health and wellness, and arts and culture programming.
Price Hill Will is headquartered in Cincinnati, OH, and focuses its work predominantly in the neighborhoods of East, West, and Lower Price Hill on the West Side of Cincinnati.
LISC provided Price Hill Will with a bridge loan of $1,025,435 to finance the ARCO (Arts + Community) project, a creative placemaking and community facility project that will renovate a historic building in the Incline District of Price Hill. Formerly vacated, the 20,856 square foot space will be transformed into a community landmark that will be able to host community gatherings and events in addition to serving as the headquarters of Price Hill Will's renowned MYCincinnati music and arts youth education program. MYCincinnati is an especially-prized community asset, as it uses ensemble-based instrumental music as a tool for youth development and community engagement by providing youth from Price Hill with access to free, intensive, high-quality music education.
