Greensboro’s Housing Crunch Plan | Greensboro News

Greensboro’s housing crisis just got a major upgrade: city leaders just approved the “Road to 10,000” plan, which boldly targets 33,000 new homes — way beyond their original 10,000 goal by 2030. With over 3,000 homes already built toward that target, officials are already eyeing a bigger number. This framework, shaped over a year with input from residents, developers, and nonprofits, outlines five key pillars: expanding housing choices, forging stronger public-private partnerships, prioritizing affordable housing for workers, preserving neighborhoods, and boosting transparency. Land is the biggest hurdle — they’re eyeing church lots and city-owned plots — while homeowners are being nudged to add rooms, though cost remains a barrier. This is just the blueprint; the real work — funding and execution — is next. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Now, the big question: how long until he’s back on the mound? Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Triad Teens Get New Safe Havens | Greensboro News

The Boys & Girls Club of the Greater Triad is expanding big time, opening three new locations in Winston-Salem this year to give kids and teens a safe, positive space to learn, play, and grow—especially when school’s out. One standout: a full teen center with an e-sports lab and career-focused programs, turning digital energy into opportunity. With rising youth challenges and even a curfew in place, these clubs offer a vital alternative for teens to connect, build friendships, and get guidance. An open house this Tuesday invites families to see the space firsthand—and with 25 to 30 clubs planned across the Triad by 2030, this is about making a real, lasting impact.
