New Project in Northwest Reno

New Project in Northwest Reno

Ok well it's not downtown or in MidTown but it's large enough to report on regardless. As you know I occasionally spotlight new developments outside of the Reno core (such as Legends or Summit Sierra Mall.) This sounds like a pretty cool project.

New Murals in Midtown Showcase Art

New Murals in Midtown Showcase Art
