The City of Kingston is pleased to announce the launch of the second of its DRI Stockade Business District Small Grant Programs, the Business Façade Improvement Grant Program!
The Business Façade Improvement Program will provide grants of up to $20,000 each to property or business owners seeking to make improvements to the façade of a commercial property building in the Uptown Stockade Business District of Kingston. This area is bounded by the Esopus Creek and Route I-587 to the north and east, St. James Street to the south, and Washington Avenue and Dietz Stadium to the west. View boundary map here.
