Rebuilding Black Wall Street—Starting in Greene County, Alabama. Transforming one of the poorest counties in Alabama into a self-sustaining ecosystem that creates housing, businesses, and generational wealth.
Who We Are
Built by Leaders. Driven by Purpose.
Our Belief
🌍 Land is Power
🔑 Ownership is Freedom
💛 Community is Wealth
When all three come together… transformation becomes inevitable.
Phoenix Land Development is a visionary-led project founded by Chief SuñNaa Martin Chris Glin and co-led by Project Manager John Marcus Cashin.
Created to transform underdeveloped land into thriving economic ecosystems—starting in Greene County, Alabama—this is not just development. It is intentional, strategic, and purpose-driven.
The Opportunity
A Region Ready for Transformation
Acres Ready
Currently designated for development in Knoxville, Alabama
Acres in Negotiation
Additional acreage currently in active acquisition discussions
From Tuscaloosa
Strategic location near a major university city via I-20/59
Located in Greene County — one of Alabama's most economically challenged regions — with no comparable master-planned development anywhere in the area. The land sits 15 minutes from historic Eutaw and is directly accessible via Interstate 20/59.

Why This Opportunity Is Rare
Investors Are Not Being Asked to Speculate
Most developments chase profit first and stability later. Phoenix Land was designed in reverse — growth is already planned, demand is already forming, and leadership is already in place.
Workforce Housing
Stabilizes housing for all Phoenix Land operations
Land Value Growth
Increases long-term value across the entire development
Economic Anchoring
Retains families, spending, and investment locally
Low Volatility
Housing tied directly to real, on-the-ground economic activity
The Ecosystem in Motion
How Phoenix Land Creates a Self-Sustaining Loop
Every component feeds the next. Residents work locally, spend locally, bank locally — creating a compounding cycle of economic growth that is rare in rural America.
