Storefront Improvement Program
Central Eastside
The property owner of the Shoegren Building utilitized the Storefront program to help completely renovate the exterior facade of this vacant building. New windows, steel canopies, vibrant paint and improved lighting all helped to attract three retail tenants to the enhanced space.
The Storefront Program was designed to assist property and business owners to rehabilitate their storefronts and revitalize neighborhood commercial areas.
Business/property owners located in designated areas of the Central Eastside URA may be eligible to receive a storefront matching grant of up to $20,000 to assist with rehabilitation projects.
The 50/50 matching grant is paid upon completion of pre-approved applicant-paid work.
Some of the eligible items for improvement include gutters and downspouts, canopies and awnings, painting and masonry cleaning, windows and doors, exterior lighting, signs and graphics.
The Program also provides up to 30 hours of free architectural assistance to help design a new storefront or assist in recommending new lighting or paint colors.
