NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla. â There's progress being made at the corner of U.S.19 and Main Street in New Port Richey, especially if you ask City Manager Debbie Manns.
"This is an exciting project for the city really catalyst in nature," says Manns.
The property, hopefully by summer, will be home to a 45,000 sq. ft. Keiser University and around 1,000 students and 100 employees.
"And that is very much of interest to the city for a lot of different reasons, but principally, because we expect that the student body and the staff will rely on our downtown district for a lot of their needs. And we want to solidify that district and you're introducing some new consumers in the market is a strategic move on our part," explains Manns.
