The Storefront and Streetscape Improvement Program assists commercial property and/or business owners in rehabilitating their storefronts and the streetscapes located adjacent to their buildings to revitalize neighborhood commercial areas, eliminate blight, and enhance the livability of surrounding neighborhoods. Funding is provided by the Hitchcock Economic Development Corporation (HEDC).
Program Goals:
- Revitalize and improve the appearance of commercial areas to positively impact the aesthetics, marketability, and perception of Hitchcock;
- Activate the Hitchcock business environment by improving the pedestrian experience;
- Stimulate private investment, while at the same time encouraging a higher level of quality and design of retail, commercial and professional storefronts, and streetscapes.
