Today, the Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) awarded $700,000 to Town of Stuart for their Downtown Revitalization Project. This funding will be used for the construction of an expanded roof covering at the Stuart Farmers Market and a 3,200 square foot multi-property deck structure located within Stuart’s historic business district. Congressman Morgan Griffith (R-VA) issued the following statement:

“This $700,000 grant from ARC for Stuart’s downtown revitalization project is great news as the updates funded by this grant will not only make improvements at the town’s farmers market, but also transform a now unusable space in the town’s downtown area into a community amenity. This new deck structure will provide handicap accessibility to the buildings it will be built behind and also access to the creek below.”
