How can we renew our cities in ways that help every citizen flourish?
When we consider the potential renewal of our cities, community development, and the prospect of urban sprawl, we need to look at all the stories behind transformation.
How do cities lose their authenticity in these changes? What are the benefits of fixing up, rather than mowing down? How do we balance the need to transform cities with the preservation of culture, without dividing our neighborhoods?
Strong designs, public and private partnerships, accessible transportation, and good leadership help guide vision. Join us as Dorothy Dowe, Greenville City Council member, and Dr. Lee Hardy, professor emeritus at Calvin College, explain the impact of revitalization.
