A beautiful day in the North Loop neighborhood
Megan joined the North Loop Association Business Summit this month—bringing together ~40 local business leaders to talk marketing, ideas, and how we engage and invite more people into the neighborhood (not just talk about it). The conversation was refreshingly real, honest perspectives on what’s working, what’s not, and where collaboration can move the needle.
Hosted by the The North Loop Neighborhood Association (NLNA), a nonprofit focused on building a vibrant, diverse, and connected community, the summit reinforced a simple truth: strong neighborhoods don’t happen by accident—they’re built by people who show up, support local, and stay engaged.
