On February 20th, U.S. Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer stood with developers in front of the Glenny Building in Rochester to urge the National Park Service (NPS) to approve federal Historic Tax Credits (HTC) for development projects across Downtown Rochester. Many planned redevelopment projects are now confronting the need to quickly secure approval of their Historic Tax Credits before changes to the HTC program, enacted on December 22, 2017, take effect. The redevelopment of historic properties in downtown Rochester, including the Edwards Building at 34 St.Paul Street and the Glenny Building at 190-194 East Main Street represent nearly $30 million dollars in investments now planned to revitalize downtown Rochester on and around the key East Main Street block in the heart of Downtown between St. Paul Street and North Clinton Avenue.
