Façade Program
Ridgway is well known for its award winning Historic Façade Grant Program, which has been in operation since 1998. The program began as a partnership between the Borough of Ridgway and the Ridgway Heritage Council and was initially funded by a grant from the Stackpole-Hall Foundation of Elk County and the Borough of Ridgway.
Current funding is provided through a state grant and is administered through the Borough of Ridgway with help from the Ridgway Main Street Program. All improvements must follow the secretary of interior standards of design practices for preservation, if needed the Ridgway Heritage Council Design Committee provides free consulting on project design. A business is eligible for up to $5,000 in grant funding, and the applicant can be the building or business owner. The applicant must match or exceed the grant amount. Applications are available at the Ridgway Chamber of Commerce office at 300 Main Street. |
