Mordecai CAC
2024-05-14 17:30 - 19:00 | Person Street Bar, 805 N. Person Street, Raleigh
Join us on May 14 at the Person Street Bar
Please join the Person Street Partnership (PSP) and the Mordecai CAC on Tuesday May 14, 2024 at the Person Street Bar 5:30 to 7pm for a joint celebration of the success of the PSP which started with its first meeting at the Urban Design Center in March of 2011.
The partnership was founded by Philip Bernard, former Mordecai CAC co-chair and current Mordecai Traffic chair as a way to revitalize the North Person Street business district by making changes to Blount and Person Streets in order to calm traffic in the district. The PSP advocated for the funding of the Blount/Person Street and Wake Forest corridor study which subsequently resulted in funding for Phase One of the corridor project, the “road diet” which was completed in 2021.
Since its inception, the PSP has organized quarterly meetings and “visioning presentations” with NC State’s graduate school of Architecture and Design, business and property owners, the surrounding neighborhoods including Mordecai and Oakwood, William Peace University, Raleigh City Council and Staff, and anyone who wished to see North Person Street flourish as a neighborhood business district.
In 2014, the PSP was awarded a Sir Walter Raleigh award for community appearance and was also named one of the ten most up and coming downtown neighborhood business districts in the country by USA Today. The PSP has partnered with the Village at Pilot Mill to create the Holiday Light-ball Project and the City of Raleigh and Downtown Raleigh Alliance to create the Person Street Bench project and the “Build a Better Person” mural. So please plan to join us on May 14 to celebrate our many successes. This will be Philip Bernard’s last official gathering as leader of the group as he plans to step down to pursue other interests. Join other PSP partners as we continue exploring new ways to “Build a Better Person” and new directions for the PSP.
