Barberton is Back!
Main Street Barberton is coordinating two new programs in partnership with Barberton Community Foundation, the City of Barberton and Barberton Community Development Corporation.
These programs are for building owners who are investing in their downtown building to make significant/transformational improvements, or for new restaurant and retail owners who are looking to move into Barberton’s downtown.
Eligible buildings are in Main Street Barberton’s footprint.
Downtown Building Rehabilitation Program
The Downtown Building Rehabilitation Program (DBRP) will focus on restoring historic properties within Barberton’s downtown. With $200,000 allocated for this program, two grants of up to $100,000 each will be awarded to property owners who match the funding dollar-for-dollar.

Are You Eligible?
Interested applicants for either program must schedule a pre-application meeting with Main Street Barberton to discuss eligibility and project scope.
