Subscribe NowThe Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs has awarded more than $800,000 as part of its Historic Renovation Grant Program. The funds will be used to make various improvements to 17 historic properties in 10 communities throughout the state.
OCRA says the grants, ranging from $10,000 to $100,000, will fund renovations, including roof replacement, window repair and replacement, masonry restoration, facade renovation and painting, among others. Funding for the HGRP was approved by the Indiana General Assembly earlier this year.
"Indiana is full of historic properties that are being utilized to enhance their community’s quality of life and economy," said Lieutenant Governor Eric Holcomb. "Over the years, a number of historic properties have not been properly maintained and the Historic Renovation Grant Program gives communities the resources to restore them and truly better downtown economic development."
