Lodi California Real Estate

If I saved $220 this year I would make a contribution to the new effort to develop a “Japantown” historical district in Lodi, California. Much of Lodi has seen tremendous property and value benefits as the result of renovation projects. This area on the east side of the railroad tracks has long been a part of the “rail history” of Lodi, Old Main Street California but has usually carried a “wrong side of the tracks” reputation.

Historical and cultural centers will be developed and the surrounding neighborhoods will be revitalized. As part of the continuing dedication of the community to its history and its cultural diversity another area in our real estate market re-emerges as a commercial, residential and historical center.

This post is for the ActiveRain 'I could save $220 with Kodak' contest. I have a chance to win a free Kodak Printer, $220 in cash to use for the idea in my blog post, and an extra $100 to use toward ink!"

Pamela - Thanks for the good wishes - and the structure of the buildings are very much like our main "downtown" area ... and the rehabs have made them a piece of history and a delightful place to spend time. Hopefully we will see the same result in "Japantowm!" ... have a great beginning to the holiday season ...

Carla ... Now that's a big turkey! Thank you for the rememberance ... and I wish the same for yours as well. Hopefully this holiday season will bring more understanding and joy .... to all of us!

Randy - I think this is going to be a project that has a long term life ... and longer term goodwill. I'll keep you posted as things develop ... perhaps you'll want to join in! Have a great thanksgiving!

Jack,

What a great way to give back to your community with any potential winnings!

Did the contest end yet?

A great entry.

Judi - I think it ended on 11/30 ... so I guess I didn't win ... but it did get me motivated to get involved with this project! "Silver linings are where you look for them" .... a new blog series I'm working on for after the holidays!
