This region of the East Side tends to be largely isolated from the surrounded city. Crime ratings are high, urban density is low, thus clearly a not an area to establish new business. The only significant community organizations I could find were churches, of which there are many, most of them I've never heard of.
As a result, population growth is limited, specifically in Indian Village, whereas the rest of the area continues to decline. The lack of community spaces make sense; cleanup costs are overwhelming, the eroding municipal and residential state of the area perpetuate the cycle.
COMMUNITY
While that seems fairly dismal, it offers the opportunity to pinpoint the locations for potential community development. It might be possible to determine and isolate specific areas with higher urban densities, a micromanagement approach to redevelopment.
Strategic Placement
Eastern Market, near to the site is a prime example of how one might create a social center, the establishment of a community node. While it's far off, It might be possible to explore the ways that the tree farm associates with eastern market, how that might motivate community engagement, etc.
Strategic Placement
Pinpoint locations where a tree farm might benefit the region, then explore incorporating the community
