Meridian Downtown Facade Grant Opportunity

Community Development Director Terrell Thompson says, "Downtown Meridian, Mississippi businesses have an exciting opportunity to enhance and maintain their building facades through the Meridian Downtown Facade Grant, offered through the City of Meridian Community Development Department."

This program supports improvements that strengthen the look, feel, and vibrancy of our downtown. They help boost pedestrian traffic, preserve historic character, and keep Meridian’s momentum moving forward.

Just take a look at this incredible example of what’s possible through this program.

Small changes can make a lasting impact, and the results speak for themselves.
