Carver Savings and Loan Association

The Carver Savings and Loan Association opened in 1944 as the first African-American financial institution in Omaha, Nebraska. Located at 2416 Lake Street next to the historic North 24th Street corridor, it was in the heart of the Near North Omaha neighborhood, Omaha's African-American business district.〔Douglas County Historical Society. (2004) ("Omaha/Douglas County History Timeline: History at a glance" ). Retrieved October 23, 2012.〕〔("Facilities" ), Lake Point Building website. Retrieved October 23, 2012.〕
In the 1950s, Whitney Young, then head of Omaha's Urban League, worked with the Carver S&L to create a special lending program for prospective African-American home buyers. It was designed to fight the city's segregationist red lining practices, by which banks restricted loans in neighborhoods they thought less successful (generally minority). Through the Carter program, Omaha's black families were able to buy more homes within three years than in the preceding decade through other banks in the city.〔Dickerson, D.C. (2004) ''Militant Mediator: Whitney M. Young Jr.''. University Press of Kentucky. p 68.〕
The former building that housed the Association is noted as important to the history of the neighborhood and to Omaha's African-American history.〔Bicak, C. (November 12, 2011) ("Center of a rich history" ), ''Omaha World Herald''. Retrieved October 23, 2012.〕 In 2012, as The Carver Bank, the building is the cornerstone of plans for a redevelopment project to create an arts district on the North 24th Street corridor.〔Perez Jr., J. (October 16, 2012) ("$100K grant will aid plans for arts district at 24th and Lake" ), ''Omaha World Herald''. Retrieved October 23, 2012.〕〔("First African American owned bank to be turned into art gallery" ), WOWT. Retrieved October 23, 2012.〕
The former bank building is being renovated by the Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts, Theaster Gates, and the Rebuild Foundation to be used and operated as an art gallery.〔Peterson, L. (August 23, 2012) ("Carver Bank project finds potential in North Omaha gems" ), KVNO News. Retrieved October 23, 2012.〕〔("Carver Bank Studio Final Review" ). Retrieved October 23, 2012.〕 Students from Omaha North High School and the University of Nebraska-Omaha have contributed volunteer hours to rehabilitate the area.〔Pazera, J. (October 13, 2012.) ("Students tackle historic project in North Omaha" ), KMTV. Retrieved October 23, 2012.〕
