Brief History

*Artist’s rendition of the original Fulton neighborhood as seen from atop Chimborazo Hill.*

The original Fulton neighborhood was a thriving community of homes, businesses and churches. It was demolished as part of an urban renewal project in the 1970s. Almost no trace of the original structures remain. More than 800 homes, businesses and churches were destroyed, and the families who lived in them displaced. Today, a development colloquially referred to as the “solar homes” sits on the site, as well as a variety of other suburban-style homes.
