Building on these façade improvement programs, MSA was awarded a
$750K National Park Service grant to fund the first national façade improvement
grant program. Four Coordinating Programs will be selected
as partners, and we will work collaboratively with them to choose three
communities in each of their respective states to receive grants. Thanks
to additional funding from the National Park Service, we will also be
creating a suite of tools and resources for Main Streets on preparing for
and responding to natural disasters.
Finally, over the next three years, MSA, Heritage Ohio, and other partners
will embark on the Ohio Entrepreneurs Program, made possible through
the generous support of PNC Foundation, the Ewing Marion Kauffman
Foundation, Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Foundation, and Brookings Institution.
The initiative will help community leaders in three Ohio Appalachian
communities (Cambridge, Coshocton, and Martins Ferry) to
develop and sustain new entrepreneurial growth through an informed
market and place-based approach that focuses on implementation
through local capacity building and cultivating a local entrepreneurial
culture.
The MSA team and representatives from Maine tour downtown Gardiner, Maine.
