“The destiny of the U.S. heartland may be to go from farming and manufacturing towns of 5,000 people to college towns of 50,000.” Strong case for second-tier research institutions as regional revitalizers, by Noah Smith 🐇. bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

Particularly like the OZ Community Corp, which will help existing businesses and others get pro Bono legal and accounting advice on how to setup an OZ fund.

Maybe the biggest single issue with #OpportunityZones is how ethereal they are; this piece brings them back down to Earth and shows us, in detail, what's starting to work and what makes this an innovative incentive to positively reshape the economy.

So excited to see this happening. We need more stakeholder specific #OpportunityZones convenings. Look out for ones we're planning for business, healthcare, and the public sector!

Great to be on an #OpportunityZones panel at UPenn and learn about the amazing work going on in Philly, Baltimore, and most importantly Newark! Aisha Glover @Tai_Cooper101 @benseigel22 Vaughn Ross @annebnevins

Philadelphia “retains immense charm and a perpetual chip” Classic

Watching my incredible colleague Jane Cohen who will be leading our new Office of Climate Action and the Green Economy join Governor Phil Murphy to announce $100M investment in environmental justice and the green economy.

The newly daylit Assunpink Creek next to Mill Hill Park in Trenton. I'm so excited for this to open! It's right around the corner from Warren St where all the restaurants & Starbucks are. It'll especially be a critical asset once the abandoned garage is developed. #TrentonMakes
