Did you know...
that Our 42nd Avenue grants improvement funds to district businesses?
Awnings at Caribbean Spice

Mural at PortLaundry

Paint & Signage at MeRae's on 42nd
Last year, we awarded 16 grants to district businesses in conjunction with the 42nd Avenue Business Association. In the time since, we've been hard at work to bring our grants in closer alignment with community goals.

Our latest round of grants is currently open to district businesses, with a second cycle planned before the end of the calendar year. Take a peek at our grant announcement and criteria -- this was a product of community collaboration.

As per state law, properties falling within the NPI Investment Area are eligible for District Improvement funding. Click here for a map of the Investment Area.
