For years the residents of the Hard Bargain neighborhood have wanted a community center. This dream has become a reality thanks to Solomon Builders of Nashville and the Ty2 Foundation. Along with many of their subcontractors, suppliers and vendors, they helped renovate the former cemetery caretaker’s house in the Mt. Hope cemetery. On Saturday, August 11, 2012, over 400 volunteers showed up for “Ty Us 2Gether @ Mt. Hope,” a day of service in memory of Ty Osman, Jr. who was killed in a tragic car accident in March 2012.
The new community center, named Ty’s House, offers classes, events, and an Internet Café so children and adults can have access to computers and the internet. Various educational and training programs take place throughout the year.
Hard Bargain Association is raising money to help furnish Ty’s House.
