Commercial districts are busy! We greet over 300,000 people each day in the HUB. That means we get a lot of wear and tear and constant maintenance is required.
Removing tagging and graffiti is just one part of our Clean Team's efforts to create a welcoming district.

Since piloted containerized waste in the late Fall, we have seen a reduction in rodents, a 30% increase in access to sidewalk space, & cleaner streets.
Launched on the southside of the District, the program will expand to the north side in February 2023.
