When I worked so hard three years ago to land the draft in Pittsburgh, my focus was on using the draft as a catalyst for economic development, and we saw that, in fact, occur. We’ve got 10 projects that we had announced, economic development projects in Pittsburgh leading up to the draft. Three are complete and we're ahead of schedule. The other seven are underway, and they're actually ahead of schedule as well. Some are public spaces like Arts Landing, and some are conversion of old office buildings into residential. (28:22–28:31)
