We Partner
If you want to open a business, develop a property, advance a great idea for your neighborhood, we’ll plug you into the resources you need to succeed.

We Push the Projects Forward
We attract the funding and the partners to make the major changes happen: the conversion of the old ballpark into an entertainment center; the rebirth of downtown as a residential neighborhood; the clean-up of blighted properties. We tackle the big stuff where the City must play a role.
