WHP does not dictate a vision for the neighborhood, but sees itself as an open conversation among creative professionals, families, and local stakeholders. WHP is a process for working with many disparate groups, and is primarily a connector and facilitator. Some immediate pressing concerns voiced by residents that WHP is currently addressing include eliminating parking obstacles that diminish financial resources; creating passive and active recreation spaces; and establishing spaces that attract and increase tourism that will financially benefit the community at large.
