History

Land for the neighborhood was held by the family of Jean Pierre Cabanné. Between 1890 and 1920, lands were subdivided and most of its existing housing stock was built. [3]

From the 1950s through the 1970s, the West End saw significant racial transition. In 1950, neighborhood residents were 98.2% white. By 1960, the neighborhood was 30% white. Across the local area, 57,450 white families moved out and 56,150 black families moved in. [4] Much of this transition occurred in the final three years before 1960. [4] Investors encouraged white flight by blockbusting the neighborhood, and housing stock became more crowded. [4] In the 1960s, middle-class black families left the neighborhood as the housing stock deteriorated. Landlords found that local rents did not cover operating costs, causing widespread "milking" and disinvestment. [4]
