The Road to Revitalization: Economic Inclusion and America's Legacy Cities 1.8.2021

America’s legacy cities, once drivers of industry and wealth, have developed unique cultures of grit and innovation to try to overcome major obstacles like changing industries and government policies that steer investments away from communities of color. To address these challenges, the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy, which has been advancing groundbreaking solutions for 75 years, has launched the Legacy Cities Initiative (LCI). George W. McCarthy, Ph.D., President and CEO of the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy, and Chantel M. Rush, the Managing Director of the American Cities Program at the Kresge Foundation, discuss.
This forum is presented by The Lincoln Institute of Land Policy and Mansour Gavin LPA. Production and distribution of City Club forums in partnership with ideastream is generously provided by PNC and the United Black Fund.
