A Good Day for iMAGINE alexandria...

by Dennis Belmont

Today we made some big strides towards developing our space.

The Alexandria Economic Development Partnership Board has created a task force to help us implement the concept. This task force, made up of a CFO, a developer, and a community leader, will help walk us through the process for wooing a developer and developing a work plan.

Erik Muendel (Brightline Interactive), Leilani Ching (RedPeg Marketing) and I met with members of this task force today, and had a great discussion regarding next steps. We agreed that it's time to start approaching developers, and they're going to help us put together a business plan and developer packet.

Brad Nierenberg (RedPeg Marketing), Leilani Ching (RedPeg Marketing) and I then met with executives at Clarke Construction, who offered us deeper insight in to the development process, and gave us some guidance on how to proceed.

As you can see, the concept is really starting to gain traction, and is moving forward in a major way!
