"EDENS has been particularly busy around the Union

"EDENS has been particularly busy around the Union Market neighborhood and at Howard University this year, pitching a 13-story development with 379 residential units and retail at the former, and a 260,000-square-foot office and laboratory at the other. But beyond these projects, Jodie McLean has elevated EDENS' name as a retail development pioneer, having re-envisioned, sold or bought $15 billion worth of real estate assets, including the creation of Fairfax County's Mosaic District, the bustling Union Market and its Latin market sister, La Cosecha. McLean, who's now overseeing a top-to-bottom diversity and inclusion strategy for the company, sits on the boards of Cushman & Wakefield and the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond and is an Urban Land Institute trustee."

Congratulations to our CEO, Jodie W. McLean, for making #WashingtonBusinessJournal's Power 100 list for 2021! | @jodiewmclean @wbjnewsroom @unionmarketdc

✨ 'Black Girl Magic' comes to Uptown Park ✨ #7

✨ 'Black Girl Magic' comes to Uptown Park ✨ #7wordstories

As featured in Houston CITY BOOK, written by Evan W. Black:

The latest immersive art experience opens its doors in H-Town: The Museum for Black Girls in Uptown Park.

Created to "celebrate and educate everyone about our journey, from our past to present state of liberation," per founder Charlie Billingsley, the destination "serves as a love letter to Black women and our unique experiences."

The concept previously popped up in Denver, where thousands attended and posted about the multi-sensory exhibit. Houston's iteration will feature more than a dozen works by 10 creative women of color, and will showcase visual-art installations and performance pieces that tell the stories of Black women through the lens of Black artists, including Von Ross, Kayla Washington, Aunjanee Niblett, TJ Hudson, Kaylee Bender, Yazmin Atmore, KB Brown, Madd Kyng, Khia Ancalade, Chandrika Metivier, Kanika Blair, Iyesha Williams and Johnnie Jackson.

A statement released this morning calls the experience a "vibrant celebration of self-love."

The pop-up is located at 1141 Uptown Park Blvd.; opening hours are 12-8pm, Thursday through Sunday.

This past weekend, Valerie Rose and Chloé Dupless

This past weekend, Valerie Rose and Chloé Duplessis, two artists navigating disability, unveiled a new mural they worked on together, commissioned by RiNo Art District and EDENS in honor of National Disability Employment Awareness Month. Part of the 2021 RiNo Mural Program, the mural is located in EDENS’ Alley behind Denver Central Market on Larimer Street in Denver, CO.

Rose is a half-Deaf painter, muralist and activist who grew up in Colorado and now resides in Northern California. She is self-taught and all her work is hand-drawn. Duplessis is a legally blind culture bearer and digital collage artist who lives in the Denver metro area. She creates images that illuminate the forgotten, elevate the unknown and address the present.

Both artists are committed to creating art that amplifies the importance of accessibility and Disability rights and honors the contributions of workers navigating disability.

To support the ongoing mission of the artists, donations can be made to Access Gallery, a nonprofit organization that opens doors to creative, educational and economic opportunities for artists navigating disability, and Anchor Center for Blind Children, which provides early education and intervention services for children birth to five years old with visual impairments or blindness.

¡Celebremos! 🎉 🇲🇽 Urbe, the long-awaited

¡Celebremos! 🎉 🇲🇽 Urbe, the long-awaited street food spot from James Beard Award winning chef Hugo Ortega, has opened its doors at @UptownPark in Houston. The fast-casual eatery focuses exclusively on the famed street foods from all over Chef Ortega’s home country of Mexico.

Chef Ortega's inspiring story starts in the mountains of rural Oaxaca, Mexico where he lived with his beloved grandmother. From her, he learned hard work, grit and resilience. He moved to Texas when he was 18 in search of opportunity. He began working as a dishwasher while surviving and living on the streets of Houston.
Through the values instilled in him by his grandmother, he said 'YES' to any opportunity in front of him, including enrolling in the Culinary Arts program at Houston Community College and graduating in 1992. Today, Chef Ortega is 29 years into his culinary career.

Chef Ortega was named “Up-and-Coming Chef of the Year” in 1999 and Chef of the Year in 2012 and 2002 at the Houston Culinary Awards. His restaurants have been named “Top Table” by Bon Appetit; Best Restaurants in America by Eater, one of Houston’s Four Top Latin Restaurants by Forbes Travel Guide. Chef Ortega is the author of two cookbooks - 'Hugo Ortega’s Street Food of Mexico' and 'Backstreet Kitchen.'

“Necessity is what pushes you to find opportunities somewhere else,” says Ortega. “And that’s what I did.”

Welcome to our EDENS community, Chef Ortega @Chef_Hugo65! We are honored to experience your rich culture at Uptown Park.
