Home to Carnegie's first steel mill, Braddock was once a thriving community of more than 20,000 residents, showcasing theaters, family-owned shops, restaurants, great schools, and dozens of churches. Now, as a struggling town of 2,500 community leaders are working toward a cultural and economic renaissance. Braddock is leveraging novel ideas to attract new residents and build a special community that integrates the power of old and new.

Attendees will hear from shapers of the town's new ambitions: Mayor John Fetterman, his wife and business owner Gisele Baretto Fetterman, Kevin Sousa, local restaurateur, and leaders of involved local nonprofits.
