Want to thank everyone for coming today. This is truly one of the most proud that ive ever been at Mission Housing and on behalf of us, to you, thank you for coming.

It was the community who came together to ensure that this piece of land would one day become the landmark that it is today. This development is many communities, many cultures and ethnicities, many heartbeats acting as one.
