Mohawk Valley Historic Rural Revitalization Grants Reopen

Application Window Extended Through June 30, 2025

WATERFORD, NY- The Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor has reopened applications for Mohawk Valley Historic Rural Revitalization Grant Program through June 30, 2025, or until all remaining funds are awarded. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis.

The program makes brick-and-mortar investments in National Register-listed historic properties and properties that contribute to a listed historic district, located within small rural Mohawk Valley communities adjacent to the NYS Canal System.

“These grants provide critical funding for projects that maintain the integrity of historic buildings and sites and contribute to the heritage and economic vitality of the Mohawk Valley,” said Bob Radliff, Executive Director of the Erie Canalway National Heritage Corridor.

Qualified applicants are encouraged to apply as soon as possible.

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, and awards will be granted to projects that meet program criteria.

Erie Canalway’s Mohawk Valley Historic Rural Revitalization Grants are funded by the National Park Service’s Paul Bruhn Historic Rural Revitalization Grant Program.
