SALISBURY, MD– Salisbury Mayor Jake Day has worked throughout his time in office to revitalize the city and, in particular, the downtown area.
He speaks about those efforts and plans to redevelop the city despite pandemic challenges during the presentation “Three Rules for Remaking a City” 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, November 9, in Room 103 of Salisbury University’s Henson Science Hall.
In part due to Day’s work with downtown, Salisbury has become Maryland’s fastest growing city and 16th fastest growing metropolitan area, with the seventh fastest growing job market.
Day earned his bachelor’s degree in architecture from the University of Maryland College Park, a master’s degree in urban design from Carnegie Mellon University and an M.S. in environmental policy from Oxford University.
