Bed-Stuy Gateway Kick-Off
| November 19, 2009 | ||

After four years of tireless organizing, Restoration succeeded in realizing the Bed-Stuy Gateway Business Improvement District, which was signed into law at an official public ceremony with Mayor Bloomberg and local business leaders on March 30, 2009.
With a budget of $675,000, more than double that of the average BID, Bed Stuy Gateway went live October 1 providing sanitation and marketing services to local businesses and property owners. In the coming months, the BID will expand services to include District-wide promotions, a public safety program, and landscaping and beautification efforts along Fulton and Nostrand.

And hopefully, consistency and standardization of storefronts. I am tired of those tacky awnings.
