The nation's largest single-day giving event wraps up at 11:59 p.m. tonight. Let's take a look at its progress and how close it is to setting another record.
The neighborhood around the former Pearl C. Anderson Learning Center saw its school close in 2012, and has fought to have input in its destiny ever since. Development on the property by its owner, Watermark Church, will pause as it seeks to reassure its neighbors.
After nearly 80 years in the neighborhood, and years of residents pushing back, the shingle factory is beginning the process of closing its facility. But now the company seems intent to leave on its own terms.
The city stood up a fund to help residents pay for housing repairs. But many lack home insurance, which was one of the city’s requirements. In response, the Council did away with it and hope to help hundreds of Dallasites stay in their homes.
