About the author
Anyeley (she/her) is an award-winning real estate developer of commercial, residential, and mixed-use projects and was named "40 under 40" by the Urban Land Institute. She started her own company, Adre, to create meaningful places that are better for the environment and for people. This book grew from her passion of building a world where anyone has a chance to succeed. Anyeley wrote this book for any kid who notices changes in their neighborhood-like a vacant lot becoming an apartment building-and is curious about who or what made that happen. When Anyeley was a kid, she loved touring model homes with her mom but had no idea who was behind making those developments come to life, or that she could be that person one day. Today, she lives her dream of developing innovative sustainable buildings that create wealth in communities of color. This book is a tell-all for kids (and grownups) to push back the curtain on real estate development and get a sneak peek into her vision for the "City of the Future".
