Re-envisioning East Toledo | 4. “And Generations to Come…” — Waite High School

When we hear about Toledo's history and its progress, it's often in reference to the west side. But our city's Main Street can only be found on the east side, and the riverfront communities of East Toledo have made significant contributions to Toledo's rich and diverse cultural and industrial past. With all the excitement around the Marina District (now a new Metropark), what are the residents' hopes and dreams there? This video is one of a five-part series on the Garfield neighborhood as part of the Garfield Community Plan in collaboration with Toledo Design Collective, East Toledo Family Center and One Voice for East Toledo.

Episode 4, “And Generations to Come…” brings us into the halls of Waite High School, as we speak with teacher Stefanie Revesz and recent graduate Isabella Escareno on their experience of the Garfield neighborhood, its needs and its young people as they pass by one of its most distinguished anchor institutions.
