Robert Fautz, whose firm turns rundown real estate into environmentally sustainable properties, plans to inject $33 million into Hollywood’s Liberia, once the city’s segregated African-American neighborhood.

Fautz plans to invest in commercial properties, affordable housing and a 90-loft mixed-used development with 16,000 square feet of retail space and a half-acre of green space. The $20 million mixed-use project has been dubbed Liberty Lofts Park, and Fauntz is currently seeking city approval for the project, according to the Daily Business Review
