Tucson is at a crossroads, Mayor Jonathan Rothschild said in his State of the City speech.
The city can choose to languish in the past or it can choose to build on its recent success and transition onto a path to prosperity.
Rothschild touted his vision for Tucson in front of hundreds of community members at the Tucson Convention Center.
Revitalizing downtown, helping house almost 500 homeless veterans and fixing the city’s crumbling streets are evidence that good things can happen when the public and private sectors work together, Rothschild said.
But more needs to be done if Tucson wants to emerge from the economic doldrums, he added.
