Garry Gilliam Jr., CEO of the Bridge, hoped to create a mixed-use eco-village in the old Catholic school.

The future of a high-profile redevelopment project in Harrisburg is in jeopardy after the landlord announced this week the property is for sale.

This week he said he notified Bridge CEO Garry Gilliam Jr. that the group can no longer use the property for activities. As of Friday afternoon, Gilliam didn’t respond to a request for comment. Hunter said the group paid a three-year lease with the understanding the payments would help with the purchase of the building. He said his company worked with the Bridge on lease extensions but could never iron out a financial plan for them to buy it.

Plans also include an indoor farm with aeroponic systems to grow crops like greens vertically on walls without any soil, solar panels and rainwater collection system, all within the adaptive reuse of a building. The project would be funded through private investors, loans and master leases.he was inspired by Milton Hershey’s investment in Hershey, laying the blueprint with his creation of an eco-system for his workers and families.

The Bridge, Morrison noted is like other historic redevelopment projects in the city that have been slow to execute.
