Join us for four summer 2025 neighborhood site visits as we explore key priority locations being considered for future development. We’ll take a deep dive on-site with informal conversations about each area’s current condition, share stories about what used to be there, and hear your ideas for what could come next. It’s a chance to walk, talk, and shape the future together.

All three neighborhood site visits kick off at noon. Come and bring a neighbor!

The site visits may not be for everyone, and that’s totally okay. If walking or standing isn’t ideal for you right now, hop aboard our Intergenerational Tour on wheels! Designed for grandmas, grandbabies, and everyone in between, this guided bus ride will take you through the NuPoint service area. We’ll share stories from the past and imagine what’s possible for the future—all from the comfort of your seat.

Space is limited to 35 seats for residents, so be sure to reserve your spot.
