Two Historic Buildings Secured on Parade Street
Wealth. A new chapter begins for Erie’s Black Wall Street.
We’re proud to share some monumental news:
Erie’s Black Wall Street has officially acquired two historic buildings on Parade Street!
This purchase is more than bricks and mortar…
it’s the beginning of something transformational.
These buildings will serve as the foundation for a new era of community, culture, and collaboration in Erie.
Thanks to the overwhelming support we received during Erie Gives Day 2025, where our community raised $23,395 in just one day, EBWS has the momentum and collective energy to take bold steps like this. Your belief in our mission fuels everything we do, and together,
we are shaping the future.
We can’t share every detail just yet, but what’s ahead will honor history while creating opportunities for generations to come.
Let’s Build the Block. Together. 🖤
