Muskogee Historic Revitalization Subgrant Program – Subgrantees

Neighbors Building Neighborhoods, Inc. awarded 15 grants totaling $701,250 to residential and commercial property owners in the Kendall Place, Founders Place and Pre-Statehood Commercial historic districts. Funding for the program comes from the National Park Service Paul Bruhn Historic Revitalization Subgrant Program, which is focused on community and economic development through revitalization of historic properties.

Revitalization projects will take place between Fall 2024 and Summer 2026. The Muskogee Historic Revitalization Subgrant Program has the following goals: revitalize properties and preserve past investments in Muskogee’s National Register Historic Districts, conserve National Register historic structures for future generations, increase the viability and livability of existing housing stock in the historic districts of Muskogee while preserving the history embodied in the historic homes, foster additional economic development in Muskogee through the rehabilitation of historic buildings, address “eyesore” or blighted properties, and reflect a positive image of Muskogee to the community.
