Football player returns home to redevelop in his old neighborhood
by Al Sullivan


Chris Baker, former wide receiver for the New York Jets, has some sage advice for kids in the Jersey City neighborhood where he grew up.

?Follow your dream, but back it up,? he said during an interview last month. ?I?m a firm believer that you should go for the goal, but always have a backup plan. Even if you have a long career, it could change after a few years. I think anyone who wants to play in the NFL or NBA should chase the dream, but also have something that you can fall back on.?

This is true for Baker. While pursuing his career, he was lucky enough to find a mentor to help him learn the real estate business. This has allowed him to return to where he grew up in Jersey City as a redeveloper of homes in the Greenville section.
