The new apartment is named after a Scranton native and Hollywood actress and has three units in the building.<\/p>\n
SCRANTON, Pa. \u2014 A new building project is complete along Capouse Avenue. It’s called the Matzo Development, after Scranton-native and Hollywood actress Emma Matzo, who went by the stage name Lizabeth Scott and died in 2015.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It’s part of an ongoing revitalization project in the city.<\/p>\n
“Having an empty building, it creates blight for the community, it could potentially lead to crime. That’s what we’re trying to do is to revitalize the neighborhood, to avoid all of that and build this building back into what would be a community asset, versus having it be empty and condemned. For years down the road,” said Joy Hubshman, Director of Community Housing Development with Neighborhood Centers.<\/p>\n
The Matzo Development includes three apartments, a laundromat, and space for another business here along Capouse Avenue in Scranton.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The new apartment is named after a Scranton native and Hollywood actress and has three units in the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":41272,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[178,180,179],"class_list":["post-41271","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-scranton","tag-scranton","tag-scranton-headlines","tag-scranton-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41271","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=41271"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41271\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/41272"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=41271"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=41271"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=41271"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
