What day is it? It's Demo Day!!! From concept to results in less than a year, which is lightning fast in government! In partnership with the City of Marietta, we formed the Residential Revitalization Program to leverage Ohio Department of Development Site Revitalization funding in our effort to reduce blight in strategic geographic areas within the city. Our first acquisition and demolition was none other than the "most notoriously blighted property in Marietta", also known as "The Compound". As a direct result of our goal - which is to improve and increase the overall housing stock in Marietta - we've removed one of the biggest #health and #safety factors in the entire city. This is a huge win for the community and we're excited to start working on Phase 2 of the project! #housing #revitalization #community #development
