Development without displacement.

Leaders of the New School

Our work.

A real estate development collective catalyzing equitable developments in Black & Brown Neighborhoods . We actualize the dreams & aspirations of community!

Owners Representation

Previous clients of ours like First Avenue, are embarking down the exciting path to redevelop 4.9 acres of Riverfront property on the Northside. The $20M development has plans to include a publicly owned, privately managed community performing arts center, hosting up to 10,000 seats for ticketed events, and providing performance space and long-term funding for community-based programming.

This redevelopment project is happening within a vulnerable community and presents a significant opportunity to build community wealth on the Northside, NEW RULES is partnering with the development team, First Avenue as the Owners Rep to bring forward the values of the Upper Harbor Terminal redevelopment project: Disrupting gentrification and displacement, racial equity and justice, community ownership, environmental justice and sustainability, affordable housing and valuing public space and infrastructure .

TAP IN

Familiar with the old SuperAmerica gas station down the street from our current location on Lowry? We are the new owners with plans to open TAP IN Spring 24’! TAP IN is the result of our love for bringing people together over great food & drinks and intentional conversations. TAP IN is an innovation hub for entrepreneurs, big-thinkers, dreamers, and doers. Our one-stop-shop hub includes a shared workspace, a gathering space for events, a fast-casual restaurant featuring amazing food, and outdoor green space!

We are looking for programming partners to help activate TAP IN. If you know any food businesses, DJ’s, or Event Curators to expand - send them our way!

NEW RULES

NEW RULES is the flagship location where it all started! We purchased the site in 2015 and used components of design thinking to co-create this site into an Innovation hub for social change. Through our co-creation process with the community to re-develop this site, they expressed their need for access to healthy food, gathering space, and space to connect, build, and work towards their dreams. Like all of our sites, NEW RULES is an innovation hub at the intersection of Social, Events and Workspace.
