Historic Preservation Rehabilitation Tax Credit Workshop with Sam Hoyt

Attention Historic Preservationists, Housing Activists, Commercial Developers, and all who love Buffalo:

Please join Assemblymember Sam Hoyt at the Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit workshops on Wednesday, September 30th from 1-3pm (commercial tax credit workshop) and 5:30-7:30pm (residential tax credit workshop) at the Buffalo and Erie County Historical Society.

As you may know, Sam Hoyt and others worked very hard over this past few years to see this legislation signed by Governor Paterson in Buffalo in July. Within hours of its signing, a multi-million dollar project on the East Side of Buffalo was announced by Business First. Without your help this past spring, including the critical letters of support that you sent to Governor Paterson, we would not be here. These workshops are an opportunity to educate our community about the benefits of this program and prove that investing in our historic cities and neighborhoods is concrete, sustainable economic development that means both jobs and revitalized urban communities.

Both historic rehabilitation tax credit workshops will be held at the Buffalo and Erie County Historical Society and will have officials from the New York State Office of Historic Preservation, as well as other local and state preservation experts. Event partners include the NYS Office of Historic Preservation, the Preservation League of New York, Preservation Buffalo Niagara, the Campaign for Greater Buffalo, the Allentown Association, and Black Rock Riverside GNPA Historic Preservation Committee.


Please RSVP for either of these workshops (commercial or residential) to Preservation Buffalo Niagara at 716-852-3300.
