Plazapalooza and Upcoming Zoning

Friends & Neighbors, 
Plazapalooza is going down tomorrow! Don't miss all of the fun and the kick-off of another season of concerts, food trucks and froyo at the Triangles Plaza. Prepare yourself and check out the lineup and the beers on tap at Grace Tavern.
We want to give a HUGE shout out and THANK YOU to our amazing Plazapalooza sponsors. Because of their generosity we were able to plan our largest Plazapalooza event to date. Our local businesses and business owners truly care about our neighborhood and making it a great place to live. Help us show them some love and stop in!
