Mayor W. Reed Gusciora to Announce Strategic Demolition of Blighted Properties Under Federal and State Programs to Enhance Neighborhoods and Improve Quality of Life
Trenton, N.J. – Today, Monday, September 16 at 12:00 p.m. at 37 Fountain Ave, Mayor W. Reed Gusciora will announce the latest phase of the City’s ongoing efforts to revitalize neighborhoods through the demolition of abandoned properties. This phase is made possible by the federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program and the State’s Neighborhood Redevelopment and Revitalization Pilot (NRRP) Program.
The project will target multiple abandoned and deteriorating structures in Trenton’s West Ward. These properties, long seen as blights on their neighborhoods, will be completely demolished and the lots cleared, removing hazards and creating opportunities for future development in conjunction with the City’s Choice Neighborhood Plan. This initiative, part of a broader effort to take advantage of federal and state programs, aims to restore the integrity of neighborhoods and make Trenton an even better place to live. |
