Lynn Daily Item: Downtown Lynn Gets a Mulligan

Joseph Mulligan is one of three transformative development initiative (TDI) fellows hired by MassDevelopment, the state’s economic development and finance agency, who are working in Lynn, Haverhill and Springfield to improve their downtowns.  The fellows, who are experienced in city planning, community partnership building, real estate and economic development, will work in collaboration with local partnerships.
