Front Street District Revitalization Grant  June 01, 2022

Please join the Coos Bay Downtown Association (CBDA) in congratulating Heidi Sause with Corbett Building Investments, LLC on their award of the 2022 Revitalization Grant. The grant is in the amount of $200,000 from Oregon Heritage, a division of the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department. The legislature earmarked these funds from the lottery bond package in 2021.

The Revitalization Grant will be used to renovate the 161 Date Avenue building in the Historic Waterfront Heritage Zone in the Front Street District in Coos Bay. The grant will provide matching funds for the rehabilitation of the entire 1930's building. It will be a mixed-use conversion of one large rentable space into four commercial units and two residential units. This work will return the building to a state of utility and preserve the historic integrity of the property. The project will follow and meet the criteria for the U.S. Secretary of the Interior's Standards.
