Dallas Catalyst Project: Mill City
Mill City Magic
In partnership with Mill City Community Association, Builders of Hope Community Development Corporation, and Urban Specialists, TREC Community Investors will commit an initial $1 million over three years toward catalytic real estate projects that address neighborhood issues of food insecurity, public safety, affordable housing, outdated infrastructure, and a lack of community gathering spaces and youth mentoring opportunities.
