On a monthly basis, we post a high-level summary of work that has happened with Invest York Road (IYR) over the course of the previous month so that community members can stay informed about the progress being made.

Here are updates for the month of October:
  • IYR enlisted the support of a commercial real estate broker to aid in our search for properties in the corridor.
  • The Brookings Institute's Buy Back the Block program continued to provide our team with excellent technical assistance in commercial real estate.
  • Our community engagement team tabled at city council member Mark Conway's town hall event.
