Mayor Kay Barnes teamed up with the Cordish company to replace dead group of blocks filled with old unusable buildings right smack dab in the middle of our Business District. and they created the power and light district. The district came paired with the sprint center and brought people to our downtown during non peak hours and gave our city a "living room" for city gatherings. That started a snowball effect and got us a streetcar starter line and now most of this development is being spurred by that.
that was a HIGHLY condensed version of the story but you get it.
