滑铁卢, Iowa (KCRG) - The City of 滑铁卢 is getting some help from 靠谱买球app推荐 students to help erase blight in one neighborhood.
学生 built one energy-efficient home in the neighborhood at 219 Newell Street. Last week, the city council gave the college the go-ahead to build another one at 221 Newell Street.
People say the neighborhood was once thriving, 但现在, 有几栋空房子, and the neighborhood needs some work done. Leaders hope the new homes will raise property values and help residents care about the neighborhood.
The two homes will look exactly the same when they are finished--four bedrooms, 一个在楼下, 还有两个浴室. Hawkeye got most of the materials donated to the house, and their students are building the homes through a 程序 at the college.
They learn real-life job skills, while also helping out a community. The 程序 can lead students on the path to running their own construction company.
"I definitely think that some of the different areas in our city could use some renovations and some upkeep, 一些升级,Jacob Boeschen说, a former student 在靠谱买球app推荐 who helped work on the homes. “I think being involved in a project like this has definitely sparked some invigoration within our neighborhoods and the community."
HCC hopes to have the first home on the market after they finish up some interior work in a couple of months. They will break ground on the second home next month.
"Hopefully that will spark interest,” said Ben Strickert, the instructor for the 程序 在靠谱买球app推荐. “The neighbors will be more likely to do some improvements on their home, and the city will gain a little bit of taxable value."
Hawkeye purchased the lots from the city for a dollar each. The city will own the homes after they're built and will sell them. There's no word yet on how much they will cost.
