Do you think adding 10,000 more residents downtown is achievable in the next decade?

Yes — Hartford has the space and momentum to support that growth

Possibly — but it will require major housing and investment incentives

Unlikely — the market demand isn’t strong enough

No — Hartford should focus on other economic strategies instead
