                      IN RECOGNITION OF EDEN PARK

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. RASHIDA TLAIB

                              of michigan

                    in the house of representatives

                          Friday, May 27, 2022

  Ms. TLAIB. Madam Speaker, I would like to recognize the hard work of 
the southwest Detroit community and board members of Tri-City Community 
Development Corporation who made the groundbreaking at Eden Park 
possible.
  As we gather to break ground at the former site of Mark Twain School, 
we are reminded of the possibility of rebirth. This space holds the 
promise of a community green space that will serve the needs of our 
neighbors. It will be a place to gather, a central green space to enjoy 
the outdoors. As construction of the park commences, I look forward to 
seeing a space designed that will be embraced and enjoyed by people of 
all ages. It is my hope that Eden Park will exemplify what it means to 
be a place to commune. Its goals for hosting a playground, community 
garden, classes, and other recreational activities, will truly set it 
apart to become a jewel of the community.
  Please join me in tribute to the communities of southwest Detroit and 
the Tri-City CDC as they break ground on Eden Park.
