"The story of the southeast side is one of survival. We’re tired of surviving; we want to thrive now. We want more for our kids and our families."
- Roni Facen
Principal, St. Francis de Sales High School
"A lot of rhetoric is out there about how you create a sustainable community with employment opportunities, with good residential opportunities for people to live and play in. I think this is the culmination and realization of that."
