People in Denver know the historic Five Points neighborhood today looks different from how it did in the past. "Five Points is a historically African American neighborhood," Stefka Fanchi, CEO of Elevation Community Land Trust, said. "Used to be known as the Harlem of the West, at one point." Over time, a neighborhood where Black people lived and congregated, changed. "As neighborhoods gentrify and new development comes in, the people who really made the neighborhood special often get pushed out because they can’t afford to stay there," Fanchi said. New homes built at 35th Avenue and Chestnut Place in Five Points are set to support revitalizing neighborhood history. ----- More local videos here: https://youtube.com/@9news Subscribe to NEXT: https://youtube.com/@Nexton9NEWS Stay connected: 9NEWS Website: https://www.9news.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ilike9news Twitter: https://twitter.com/9NEWS Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/9newsdenver/ Download the 9NEWS App: https://www.9news.com/appredirect/ Sign up for the 9NEWSLETTER: https://www.9news.com/email 9NEWS (KUSA) is located in Denver, Colorado.
