Neighborhood Summit Envisions the Future

 A recent survey finds only half of Hamilton County residents consider themselves thriving. And for a variety of reasons, an increasing number is suffering. Community leaders want to turn this around, and during a recent Cincinnati summit envisioned neighborhoods with more housing, investment and a greater sense of belonging. Organizers hope the entire region can learn from the event. Interview guests: Elizabeth Bartley, executive director Invest in Neighborhoods; Brandon Rudd, deputy director of the Office of Strategic Growth for the City of Cincinnati; Laura Castillo, interim chief Procurement Office for the City of Cincinnati; Ruth Anne Wolfe, founder Community Happens Here; Ezra Logan, intern Community Happens Here;  Andrea Jandricek, architect and co-founder The Changing Ground Project; Ed Mathis, vice president of Republic Commercial Real Estate; Macda Mulugeta, Ohio State University graduate;  Gerald Stewart, ToolBank coordinator; Luke Greiner, UC freshman, led Project CREATE; Chris Valesky, UC senior. Please give us your feedback: https://forms.gle/16YosVHyL7mE3Up9A  Brick by Brick WebsiteFeedback Survey
