Transforming Downtown Holyoke with New Housing
Wed., February 26 (12 p.m.)
This is a virtual event. Zoom information will be provided at sign up.

Downtown Holyoke is reinventing itself using innovative financing tools to fuel both retail and housing development. Come hear and learn about the successes of long-term planning efforts to create vibrant Downtown Holyoke along the High Street corridor, including the role of public-private partner-ships, and how the many financing tools can be utilized to build new housing, foster mixed-use development, and spur retail growth.

Our Panelists will take you on a virtual walk down High Street and discuss the transformation that is underway to create a vibrant downtown as vacant store fronts fill with retail tenants and the boards come off the upper floor windows making way for new housing.
