🎉 Happy 100th Anniversary to the National League of Cities! 🎉 For a century, NLC has been a steadfast voice for local governments, empowering communities with invaluable support and resources. NJIT TAB is proud to work alongside NLC to provide technical assistance to communities, driving forward solutions for brownfield redevelopment and sustainable growth. Here’s to a remarkable legacy and an even brighter future! 🌟 #NLC100 #Brownfields #CommunityRevitalization
Exactly 100 years ago today, the National League of Cities was formed! 🌟 On Dec. 12, 1924, a small group of city leaders sat down together in Lawrence, Kansas with one common goal – to create an organization that would be the voice of local governments in Washington, D.C., and provide services and support to local leaders. Hear remarks from NLC CEO and Executive Director Clarence Anthony on this special day, and visit nlc100.org to celebrate with us by sharing our #NLC100 social media graphics!
