Nampa Facade Rehabilitation

Orchid: Cultural Heritage Preservation

Nampa

In 2006, the City of Nampa initiated a program to partially fund the renovation and rehabilitation of historic buildings in the city’s core. Financed by the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development, this program offers up to 50 percent of the cost of renovation of historic structures for projects meeting the program’s requirements. Typical projects have ranged in cost between $60,000 and $120,000. So far, seven projects have been completed and with the support of the city, more are possible. In combination with Nampa’s plans for downtown construction projects, these grants are bringing the downtown core back to life. Preservation Idaho is pleased to recognize the Downtown Nampa Facade Rehabilitation Grant Program with an Orchid Award for Cultural Heritage Preservation.
