Are you hoping that this is something that would be applied to other downtowns? Have you thought of other areas where this might be especially appropriate?

We have thought about the replicability of this both locally and nationally and we're very interested From my standpoint it's a process. If you can create a process that gives a community a voice, that creates a big idea everyone can get their arms around, and moves forward in a manner that is environmentally, socially, and economically healthy, then it's a win-win situation. It's just about the capacity to replicate the process. Each project is going to have it's own spirit of place, each city is going to have its own Bancroft, but the process can be replicated quite easily.
