Next up, the story of Bristol’s revitalization was broken down and explained by Bill Pezza, chairman of Bristol Borough: Raising the Bar. The longtime Bristolian talked about how Mill Street went from quiet and sleepy central business district just a few years ago to a hotspot that draws visitors from around the region. One of the borough’s key features, Pezza told members, was the riverfront.
LevittownNow.com Publisher Tom Sofield thanked the group that turned out and highlighted some recent reporting projects supported by In The Know Club members.
