More than 350 people attended a two-day November open house for a peek at a trio of redevelopment designs for the Lathrop Homes, according to a statement sent Wednesday by the project's coordinators.

"In fact, a few of our youngest participants suggested a zoo and ice cream parlor be included in the future plans."
