Update #4: Block Party video!

Posted on June 8, 2011



Here is the video of what happened at the Block Party, thanks to all of you! To see the other videos in the Block Party series, go here.

Thanks again for all of your help and support, and as always, you can keep up with our progress in The Granary District, and Block Party next steps, here.

Update #3: Block Party videos and pictures!

Posted on May 24, 2011



Thanks to all of you, the Block Party was a HUGE success!

Check out what you helped to create! The footage is raw, so look for an edited 'Block Party' video in the near future.

Here is the article that was on the front page of 'Utah' section in the Salt Lake Tribune. You can check out more pictures, here.

Here's an interview with the Mayor of Salt Lake at the Block Party.

Thanks again for all your support.

Sincerely,

James Alfandre and The Granary District neighborhood

Update #1: We're funded!!!

Posted on May 11, 2011

And with FOUR days to spare! Thank you all for your support! We're going to take a good Block Party and make it GREAT because of you all. 

We are beyond THRILLED!

We could always use some more money to make the Block Party even greater, so our work isn't finished quite yet, four more days to go!

But for now, again: THANK YOU!
