Join USGBC-STL and St. Louis Community College for a free program on the creation of a sustainable, diverse community called the Lincoln Park Coast Cultural District.  This eco-village has revitalized a once abandoned, crumbling neighborhood in Newark, NJ which now boasts a workforce training program with an 80% placement rate and an annual music festival drawing thousands of people to the community.

Highlights of the development include:

● LEED® Certified Affordable Housing

● Acceptance into the LEED-ND® Pilot program

● Urban Agriculture

● Historic Preservation

● Community Outreach

● Green Job Training Program


Baye Adofo-Wilson is the Founder and Executive Director of the Lincoln Park Coast Cultural District (LPCCD).  He is a nationally recognized expert on community economic development and workforce training programs in the "green" collar market.
