Little Italy Redevelopment Corporation
About Us
Located in the historic Alta House building, Little Italy Redevelopment Corporation (LIRC) was formed in 1994 in response to the need for a community development organization in the Little Italy area. LIRC’s mission is to guide the Little Italy community into the future while improving and preserving the ethnic, historic and artistic aspects of the neighborhood by employing the following goals:

  1. To increase owner occupied housing in both new and existing housing stock.
  2. To assist business owners in improving their commercial properties and promoting the area as a vital shopping, dining and entertainment destination.
  3. To maintain the historic architectural elements of Little Italy reflecting the area’s status as a city of Cleveland historic district.
  4. To promote community involvement and consensus in the planning, preservation and development efforts of the community.
  5. To aid in housing code enforcement to maintain high property values.

LIRC is funded through several sources:
  • Financial support from City of Cleveland Councilwoman Patricia Britt.
  • Community Development Block Grant funds (CDBG) administered by the City of Cleveland Department of Community Development.
  • Yearly membership dues.
  • Fundraising revenue.
