Lots of excitement around TYCO as we review and consult on potential projects for Downtown Fresno.
Both new construction and re-purposed buildings are being talked about by various developers both local and out of the area as everyone investigates using Federal and/or State funds in Public/Private partnerships to make projects possible.
We will attach as many proposed project renderings as we’re able and update often, so please (follow) check back.
