Africatown Community Land Trust, established in June 2016, develops and stewards land in Greater Seattle to empower and preserve the Black/African Diaspora communities. The land trust was made possible by collaborating with a business association and neighbourhood stakeholders to develop the Midtown Center. The land trust works towards community ownership of land in the Central District. The Africatown Community Land Trust board comprises real estate professionals, business executives, entrepreneurs, and other professionals and long-time community members from the Central District.
