Word comes to Prime Buzz that Jon Stephens is stepping down as president of the downtown Power & Light District.

Stephens is forming his own company, Rockhill Strategic LLC, and will still provide consulting services to the Cordish Company.

Stephens navigated many challenges to get the new downtown entertainment district up and running, and dealt with public and council concerns, especially over alleged discrimination in the enforcement of the district's dress code.

He will be replaced by Executive Director Nick Benjamin, who served as the district's leasing director, and Chief Operating Officer Kevin Battle, who was promoted from general manager.
