Our HistoryCCRA is a non-profit, volunteer-led civic association that was founded in 1947. We represent the residents of Center City West, from the west side of Broad Street to the Schuylkill River, and from south side of JFK Boulevard to north side of South Street. CCRA's origin purpose was to save Rittenhouse Square from being converted into an underground parking lot. In the 70 years that followed, our focus has greatly expanded. Among other things, we do the following: ZoningAs the registered RCO for our territory, we hold public zoning meetings allowing our residents to interact with and provide input to property owners and developers in connection with the zoning process. GovernmentCCRA serves as an important link between the residents and local, state, and federal government, advocating for good schools, clean streets, and neighborhood safety. We offer testimony on bills before City Council, and organize public forums with elected officials and representatives from government agencies. Sidewalk CleaningCCRA raises funds to pay the Center City District to clean trash and debris from our sidewalks. CommunicationCCRA provides timely information about community events through our weekly "CCRA This Week" e-newsletters and online quarterly magazines. Community GardeningCCRA manages and supports garden plots at the Schuylkill River Park Community Garden. We offer plots to our members on a first-come, first-served basis.
