"BLC is a true partner of HREDC in shepherding the former Hardesty Federal Complex from one of Kansas City’s most blighted sites, through one of the most innovative and creative approaches to repurposing some of our country’s most challenged properties, into one of the most exciting community development projects in Kansas City’s history."

“BLC has guided, supported, and advised us through the challenges of securing and opening a new charter public school facility and developing our Board policies. Their partnership has been invaluable. BLC has been willing to work within our large committee structure, has taken input and feedback from multiple sources, and has worked at all times to show us the options that will help us achieve our mission — opening an exceptional public school to serve the students of Midtown Kansas City. We are grateful.”
