Renewal & Reality: Rebuilding Braddock (Full Episode)

Braddock, Pennsylvania was once a vibrant steel town with a population of more than 20,000. Today, fewer than 2200 people live there. Enter a team of community leaders and investors determined to spark new life. As the borough struggles to rebound from unemployment, poverty, crime and the devastating loss of its hospital, there are signs of revitalization and hope. But who benefits from the rebirth? This program explores Braddock through the eyes of residents and those working hard for change.

I started working at ET 6 months ago and driving through Braddock twice a day I started noticing what the people were doing and started encouraging my coworkers to start stopping at the stores and ordering food from here over other places we figured we work here we should help the town the best we can it’s not much but we have had other people ask what we was doing and now they use the stores we drive past anyway I come from WV 62 miles away and I noticed what the locals were doing here and I love it!!! I use the farmers market a lot when in season and just all around contribute the best I can as I pass through 10-12 times a week and if more stores open we will use them also!!! Y’all are doing something amazing keep it up and us as people will help the best we can also!!!!
