The Heart of Camden
realizes that housing is just one component of the whole
community. It recognizes that in order to facilitate
a more complete revitalization of the Waterfront South
neighborhood the economic, social and environmental systems
across this urban landscape must be addressed holistically.
The goal of
the Heart of Camden's Environment Division is to repair the historic Waterfront
South neighborhood through mitigating and addressing the environmental issues
that have contributed to the neighborhood's decline such as air pollution, soil
and water contamination and overall urban ecosystem dysfunction.
Currently, the primary objectives of the Environment Division
are 1) Air pollution mitigation and the revitalization
of open space through the implementation of the Environmental
Mitigation and Landscape Master Plan (EMLMP) and 2) Urban
greening through local capacity building.
