In a proactive move to enhance the vibrancy of Downtown Houston, over $2.2 million has been allocated for three distinct grant programs aimed at local businesses. These funds are designed to support improvements that will not only beautify the area but also attract visitors, particularly as the city prepares for the 2026 World Cup.
The grants will finance a variety of initiatives, including the installation of new signage that reflects the character and culture of the district. Additionally, funding is earmarked for the restoration of historic building facades, helping to preserve the architectural heritage of the area while making it more appealing to tourists and residents alike.
Moreover, businesses can also apply for grants to expand outdoor seating areas, creating inviting spaces for patrons to enjoy dining and socializing. This initiative is expected to invigorate the local economy and enhance the overall experience for visitors in the lead-up to this significant international event.
