The final Historic Fort Wayne Strategic Plan is a document that will guide Historic Fort Wayne on its path toward sustainable operation. It was produced by the City of Detroit General Services Department with the generous support of the National Park Foundation and the Kresge Foundation.

The plan includes recommendations on interventions including stabilization of vacant buildings, solicitation of support and guidance from public, private, and nonprofit partners, and finding new and compatible uses for presently vacant buildings. To achieve this, the City will rezone Historic Fort Wayne from R1 (single family residential) to PD (planned development) and also proposes to update the the Future Land Use map in the Master Plan of Policies for the area generally bounded by the Detroit River, Rademacher St. (extended), W. Jefferson Ave., and Calvary St. (extended) from PR (Regional Park) to INST (Institutional) to allow for the rezoning of the property and the potential rehabilitation and leasing of the buildings to various entities.

The meeting held on February 22nd, 2021 had 48 attendees and the presentation can be found below.
