    Resurgent Remington Helping to turn an entire neighborhood for the better, the NMTC program and the effect it can have is on display in Remington, a northern Baltimore neighborhood. Encouraging investment and supporting one project to help stabilize a neighborhood, NMTC was utilized to rejuvenate Miller’s Court, an unused and derelict building into a center for nonprofits such as Wide Angle Youth Media. Since, more investments have been made into housing, community-focused retail and more.
  • Explore! Community School to open Fall 2015
    Explore! Community School to open Fall 2015 The mission of Explore! Community School is to develop the love for learning, critical thinking, and communication skills of a diverse community of students as they master the academic and social emotional building blocks necessary for college and career success.

    Drawing upon sponsor agency Martha O'Bryan Center's extensive experience in the community and the success of East End Preparatory School, Explore! Community School will become one of Nashville's highest achieving schools, a hallmark of what a school can be in terms of providing an excellent, joyful education for all children, regardless of socioeconomic, racial, and cultural background. The educational program of Explore! will be built upon the following key components:

    - A culture of excellence and joy. We believe that when students are held to high standards and create works of excellence that they take pride in and ownership of, they realize their true potential, unlocking that capacity for excellence in every area of their loves. Children are born with a love for learning and we will cultivate that love by providing a joyful educational experience that encourages each student to explore their creativity and passions in a supportive and rigorous environment.

    - Project-Based Learning. Daily, students will engage in hands on, real-life learning activities that reinforce taught skills and concepts while developing the critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and creativity skills necessary for success in the 21st Century.

    - Integrated character development. In order for students to be truly prepared for success, character traits such as self-control, perseverance, responsibility, empathy, and hope must be purposefully taught and encouraged. Explore! students will benefit from integrated character development that ensures they are equipped with the academic and developmental foundations to create excellence in every aspect of their life.

    - K-8 school community. Explore! will create a supportive community of teachers and learners in which students at every grade level feel safe to take risks, express themselves, and strive towards excellence. This community will enable students in early adolescence to focus on developing the academic and character foundation necessary for success in high school in a familiar and supportive environment.

    - Family engagement. At Explore! we enroll families, not just students, and will be responsive to families' needs and interests. Recognizing that caregivers are children's primary teachers, we will work purposefully to engage families and empower them to participate meaningfully in their child's education.

    - Celebration of diversity. Our school community will reflect the diversity of Nashville and each student and family's unique background will be celebrated and utilized as an opportunity for learning. Our school depends upon approaching diversity as a strength-based model, learning from our differences as well as our shared experiences.

    - Community programming. It is a high priority to engage with families and the community in which Explore! is located and to make them a significant part of the Explore! learning community. We will make it clear, through our school philosophy, design, policies, and practices, that we believe that children learn everywhere, all the time and that partnering with our families and the community is a critical element in student learning.

  • The Rise Of The Iron Horse Grill
    The Rise Of The Iron Horse Grill A Photo Story by Sarah Black; Featuring Chef Pierre Pryer

    "The first dish I ever saw was an enchilada. I had never eaten one before...and at that point I knew that this was what I wanted to do. I would leave my dish station, go on the line and just ask guys, ‘What are you doing? What's this right here? What's this dish called? What are these called?' Before long I was able to make my own recipes, and I never washed dishes again!”

    - Chef Pierre Pryer Sr., The Iron Horse Grill [since ’86]

    Lost twice to fires, Iron Horse Grill is a flagship of revitalization for Jackson’s downtown community. Chef is going on his third tenure, having worked on and off there since 1986.

    "We look forward to being a part of the continued growth of Downtown Jackson. Projects like the Capitol Art Lofts, Westin Hotel, and Mississippi History & Civil Rights Museum will continue to allow Chef Pierre and The Iron Horse Grill to share the great reasons Downtown Jackson is Back!"

    - Andy Nesenson. General Manager, The Iron Horse Grill

    Iron Horse Grill will launch an all NEW menu January 25, bringing back an ‘old favorite’ for the last 25 years- Burrito De Pollo, a fresh flour tortilla with lime sauce, stuffed with spicy chicken, tomatoes, green onion, hand rolled and topped with a light sour cream sauce and Monterrey Jack cheese.

    "I was walking through the restaurant a couple of weeks ago during Sunday Brunch and they were playing the song ‘Don’t Stop Believing’ — A guest grabbed me by the arm and said 'Chef, I can start believing you’re gonna bring back the Burrito De Pollo.' And I said, 'M’aam I’m gonna do that.’

  • Street Squash, a New Markets Tax Credit Success Story
    Street Squash, a New Markets Tax Credit Success Story StreetSquash, located in Harlem, is an innovative and successful urban youth enrichment program that was founded in 1999. StreetSquash combines academic activities, college preparation, community service, mentoring, and squash for boys and girls ages 9-18 to help them graduate from high school and move on to active and productive lives.

    Thanks to $6.5 million in NMTC financing provided by HEDC New Markets, Inc., StreetSquash expanded into a 19,000 square foot facility in Harlem, NY in November 2008. The new facility has allowed StreetSquash to serve more than 750 Harlem public school children each year, providing 4 classrooms and a library, as well as 8 squash courts, a workout area, locker rooms, and administrative offices. StreetSquash was able to expand its after-school program to serve more 160 children annually; provide College Prep Program to 100 students annually; expand the Summer Discovery and Youth Employment Program to serve over 300 students annually; create an Alumni Outreach Program for nearly 100 high school graduates; and launch the Physical Education for Public Schools Program that serves over 750 students annually through daytime squash instruction gym programs.

    Now that it has the physical capacity to serve more students, the organization added six full-time positions and fifteen part-time positions − two of which are filled by parents who live in the neighborhood. StreetSquash also doubled its volunteer base to 100 so that it can serve more students. Outside of organizational growth, the new building has increased StreetSquash’s efficiency, bolstered the organization’s external credibility, encouraged cohesion and community building, and improved students’ experiences of their physical surroundings. By investing in a center that expands operations and improves participants’ experiences, StreetSquash serves as a true community asset.
