Project Description

Summary:  View help for Summary This data was manually entered from the Consolidated Development Directory (Report S-11A), published by the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Housing Production and Mortgage Credit, Statistical Operations Branch on June 30, 1973. It contains development information on all low-rent housing projects administered by FHA. 

The CDD was viewed on microfiche (506 pages), with page 372 missing and some entries blurry to varying degrees. Data was rarely too difficult to read, whenever possible blurry or incomplete numbers were filled to the best of our ability. US States and Washington DC was digitized – US territories were not. County in the digitized spreadsheet was also added manually. When a city spanned multiple county lines and was not specified in the original spreadsheet, projects were assigned to the city’s primary county. Counties for New York City and Kansas City, MO were simply classified as missing. This directory is issued annually and replaced the June 1972 issue of the Consolidated Development Directory (S-11A).
