About · The New Windsor Park Sixty-two years from first family to next.

Not a development. A restoration.

Ninety-three new houses on eighteen acres at Carey and West — built for the families who lost the ground beneath the original Windsor Park. Publicly funded. Given to the residents, not sold to them.

Mission ·
2026

We are here to build the houses the State of Nevada and the City of North Las Vegas have committed to building. To do it with the architectural quality, environmental care, and ordinary respect the wait has demanded. And to hand over the keys.

What that looks like on the ground: ninety-three single-story houses across eighteen acres at Carey Avenue and West Street. A walkable grid. Native plants. The parks and corner shops the original community already knew, still inside a short walk of the new front doors.

01 / History
Six decades

How we got here.

The story didn't start in 2023. It started in 1964, when Windsor Park was one of the only places Black families in Las Vegas could buy a house. The ground was already on borrowed time.

1964

The neighborhood is platted

Windsor Park goes up in North Las Vegas — one of the only neighborhoods Black families can buy into under the era's redlined market. People build lives here.

Founding
1980s

The ground starts to move

Decades of groundwater pumping compact the earth beneath the neighborhood. Houses begin to crack. Foundations fail. The cause is the city. The damage falls on the families.

Subsidence
1995

The risk is named

Public agencies finally acknowledge structural failure across the neighborhood. A partial buyout starts. Most residents stay — they have nowhere comparable to go.

Recognition
2008 — 21

The residents push

Homeowners and local advocates spend a decade and a half pressing state and city officials for a real answer. Not another patch. A new neighborhood.

Organizing
2023

The story breaks open

CNN features the sinking neighborhood. Within months, the legislature commits to fund a replacement. The New Windsor Park takes shape on paper.

Commitment
2025 — 26

Build, then keys

Ground breaks September 2025. Move-in begins December 2026 — sixty-two years after the first Windsor Park family bought their first house.

The team

Three names on the door.

Small, accountable, easy to find. The three people responsible for getting this from groundbreaking to keys.

Project Manager Emma Thompson

Schedule, budget, and every contractor on the site. If the trades aren't talking to each other, that's her phone.

Lead Architect Liam Rodriguez

Drew the three plans. Drew the streetscape that holds them together. Still on site every other week to keep both honest.

Community Liaison Sophia Patel

Single point of contact for every displaced family — from the first selection meeting through the day they take their keys.

From the families

The people moving in.

My mother bought our first house here in 1971. I watched the kitchen floor tilt for the last twenty years of it. Standing on the new slab — same address, basically — I cried.

— Original homeowner's daughter · Block A

They asked us what we needed. Not what was efficient to build. What we needed. That's not the meeting we expected.

— Block B resident

My grandkids are going to grow up on this street thinking nothing of it. That's the whole point. That's the part nobody ever talks about.

— Original homeowner

I'd given up by 2015. I really had. Watching the framing go up last month — I'm not used to good news taking this long and still showing up.
