Bronx Downtown Revitalization Intiative

Mainland Media worked with HR&A Advisers to develop a Strategic Investment Plan for the Bronx Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI) also known as The Bronx Civic Center. The submitted plan discusses how $300,000 in planning funds from New York State’s $10 million DRI grant would be used to revitalize The South Bronx.

The Strategic Investment Plan was developed by a a Local Planning Committee (LPC) made up of municipal representatives, community leaders and other stakeholders with support by a team of private sector experts and state planners. The plan for the South Bronx examined local assets and opportunities and identified economic development, transportation, housing, and community projects that align with the community’s vision for downtown revitalization and that are poised for implementation.

Mainland Media managed the LPC meetings, community open houses and developed marketing materials including an informational pamphlet and website.
