About this grant
This grant increase will provide support to the Foundation for the Uptown Reinvestment Corporation to complete the redevelopment of several buildings in a critical block on the east side of South Saginaw Street in downtown Flint. The vacant and unused buildings between the Mott Foundation building and Second Street are being redeveloped through a public-private partnership for office, retail, and residential loft uses. The grantee will provide the grant funds to its supported organization, the Uptown Reinvestment Corporation, which intends to utilize the funds to invest in the project.
