East Side Renaissance. Providing hope.

908–912 Parade Street

Healthcare belongs
in the neighborhood.

MHEDS on Parade connects the future of healthcare access with the future of Erie’s East Side.

Proposed design from the Bostwick Design Partnership rendering, animated with people for illustration. Conceptual reference; not for construction.

A ten-year gap.
Only miles apart.

Residents of ZIP code 16508 live, on average, ten years longer than residents of 16503.

Transportation, language, cost and appointment availability can stand between our neighbors and routine care. MHEDS on Parade is planned as a neighborhood response to these barriers.

Historic buildings.
A new purpose.

Eastside Renaissance and MHEDS envision a welcoming healthcare destination within a series of historic Parade Street properties. The project brings neighborhood redevelopment and healthcare delivery together in one place.
