Community News

Community news for Grant Street is a way of keeping neighbors informed about what’s happening in and around our neighborhood—projects, events, decisions, and opportunities that impact our shared life together. It helps us stay connected, build trust, and make sure everyone has access to what they need to participate in shaping the future of our community.

Building Partnerships for Housing Solutions

Behind the scenes, we're building new partnerships to explore long-term housing solutions for our neighborhood's unhoused neighbors.

While these conversations are still in the early stages, we're excited to keep neighbors informed as new opportunities emerge.
