Make Meadville an Investment
Meadville’s downtown has opportunities you’re looking for—undervalued properties with authentic character, a coordinated team ready to help you execute, and a record of successful adaptive reuse projects.
We know what brings smart investors and developers to smaller markets: attractive acquisition costs, buildings worth saving, and partners who understand how to get projects done. This is Meadville.
Business and Property Redevelopment is one of the MCRC’s core strategic focuses for revitalizing our downtown. Adaptive reuse is key to our current and future identity, linking our legacy of recognized manufacturers and today’s makers to vibrant, creative spaces.
The Investment Case:
$42.7 million in private investment has been leveraged in our region, creating more than 130 jobs. Projects like Cussewago Square prove that significant investment can succeed here—and that our coordinated approach between MCRC, the Redevelopment Authority, and city officials makes execution straightforward.
What you’ll find in Downtown Meadville includes historic building stock with genuine architectural character, an emerging pipeline of entrepreneur and maker tenants ready for quality space, upper-story residential conversion opportunities in a housing-constrained market, and municipal partners who want your project to succeed. To this end, we’ve strategically identified several key properties that will transform our downtown.
What We Offer:
When you’re ready to explore, we’ll connect you with the resources that matter: priority redevelopment area maps, property inventory with details, complete incentive stack information (historic tax credits, NMTC, RACP, etc.), tenant demand data, and local development partners who know the market.
We’ll walk you through zoning and other municipal requirements. We’ll make introductions. We’ll answer your questions honestly.
