We had a fantastic and informative session yesterday Saucony Creek Franklin Station Brewpub focused on the continued growth and momentum happening right here in Reading. Attendees received valuable updates on the City’s progress through CRIZ, the exciting developments tied to SRPRA, and the impact of TOD initiatives shaping the future of our community.

A sincere thank you to our outstanding presenters — Pam Menet, Pete Rye, and Aaron Gantz — for sharing their expertise and insight into the projects driving revitalization forward.

We’re also grateful to our sponsors, First National Bank of Pennsylvania and Muhlenberg Greene Architects, for their support in making programs like this possible.

The future of Reading is moving full steam ahead — and we’re proud to be part of the conversation!
