The City of Grinnell worked with RDG Planning & Design to improve the facades of 13 downtown storefronts. 

The facade work includes masonry repair and renovation of the upper or lower storefront windows. Facades were taken back to their historic appearance with the addition of new canvas awnings and new signage. All proposed work was reviewed by the State Historic Preservation Office and much of the funding was received in grants through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program.
