Neighborhood Watch
By the 1970s the neighborhood of Plaza Midwood began regaining and rebuilding its identity. The Plaza Midwood Neighborhood Association began forming other organizations under their banner. The people of Plaza Midwood made efforts to create not only a house to live in, but also a community of which to be a part.
In 1976 the Plaza Midwood Neighborhood Association began building a neighborhood watch as part of this sense of community. They teamed with local law enforcement to provide training and item engraving and watched movies to learn about building a safe place to live. The neighborhod watch events not only helped promote safety for the neighborhood, but continued to build community and identity.
