Florida Street project offers benefits for all

The Florida Street extension project is still hot on the minds of many individuals. The final decision still ultimately rests with the Board of Trustees of N.C. A&T, which is being asked to give up some land on its research farm to accommodate the new roadway.

As an A&T student, I am not sure how I feel about part of the school’s land being taken away, but I know it is for the better good. The proposed extension would create an intersection near the nanotech campus and the new Gateway Gardens.

It would extend Florida Street, which begins at Holden Road in the west, to McConnell Road. Hopefully, it eventually would build the area up and get all of Greensboro on the same economic page.

The more I research the issue, the more I am letting go of the emotional attachment to the land at A&T. Everyone should do their research and see in the long run that it will benefit A&T, Greensboro and your children’s future and the future of little Aggies.
