Question o' the Week: After the ups and downs Farish Street has seen in the past several years, what do you think the area needs to thrive?

Chris Kirwin Casino!

Austin Harvey Bars, restaurants and shopping. Those lead to a renewed interest in safety and more community involvement from the surrounding area. Farish Street could become "the place" if it could just show any sign of progress.

Kristie Storey Local officials who want to see Farish Street succeed, and more community involvement.

Jessica Barber Definitely more community involvement and art. I think Farish has real character, history, and is developing its own personality! (It has) true potential to be an ART district ... something Jackson lacks as well. Just an idea.

Rachel Semmes-Mckinney I think they need to review the plans of broken areas that now thrive ... Beale Street, Times Square, etc.
