The April meeting is at noon on Thursday, April 20th, at the downtown Capital City Club.
Our speaker is affordable housing expert and advocate Marjy Stagmeier. Ms. Stagmeier is a founding partner of TriStar, a nationally recognized real estate investment firm in Atlanta. Stagmeier led TriStar to develop its sustainable housing model that targets blighted and marginalized apartment communities near failing elementary schools.
Atlanta’s Channel 11 has a full-length feature on Marjy’s work.
Marjy’s new book Blighted: A Story of People, Politics, and an American Housing Miracle tells the story of the reinvention of Summerdale, an aging, mold-infested apartment community located in one of Atlanta’s grittiest corridors.
