Young Guns Forum: Knox District

Join us as we cut the ribbon on the first project completed during Dallas Catalyst Project: Mill City! Our Young Guns members have been hard at work renovating the property at 4907 Spring Avenue, also known as Spring Plaza, which houses the nonprofit South Dallas Fair Park Innercity Community Development Corporation (ICDC) and retail space for up to three tenants.

Founded in 1986, ICDC’s mission is to “Create a stable, safe, and vibrant South Dallas/Fair Park community by building partnerships that provide homeownership opportunities, job training, economic development, community education, and advocacy.”

Renovations to Spring Plaza’s exterior included fresh paint, new landscaping and signage, and upgraded safety and security measures. The project received more than $75,000 in TREC Community Investors grant funds and $45,000 from ICDC.

The two-story, 15,000 square-foot Spring Plaza site includes office space, a reception area, restrooms, kitchenettes, conference rooms, and the three retail suites. Spring Plaza serves more than 2,500 residents annually through ICDC and the retail space.
