Historic South Melbourne Revitalization

Our Historically significant South Melbourne community stands at a crossroads, where history, culture, and the aspirations of our residents converge. In an effort to effectively ward off gentrification and to navigate this juncture with wisdom, compassion, and our collective wisdom, SCCABO, in partnership with the South Brevard Branch NAACP created the Historic South Melbourne Community Coalition. Together, we are striving to create a vibrant, inclusive South Melbourne, preserving its history and embracing future prosperity.
