Wade Patterson of the Saw Mill Community Land Trust talks about Creativity, Equity and the Reimagining of the City. He discusses how a once-sleepy community's innovative vision is reinventing affordable housing in Albuquerque's post-industrial era. Sawmill Community Land Trust has implemented a model for permanently affordable housing on a 34-acre former brownfield site within the urban core, creating a dynamic, community-focused neighborhood that challenges conventional notions of how change happens and who constitutes the Creative Class.
