- Historic Trust Announces 60 New Recommended Grants
The New Jersey Historic Trust announced its recommended list for 2008 Historic Preservation Grants. The list of recommended sites will go before the Garden State Preservation Trust on March 11 for ratification and then move on to the Legislature for approval. 60 projects at historic sites were selected and would receive a total of over $15.5 million in funding.“The Historic Trust continues to make great strides in preserving New Jersey’s culture and historic sites,” said Department of Community Affairs (DCA) Commissioner Joseph Doria. “This is indicative of Governor Corzine’s efforts to revitalize our state’s economy. Not only will this action preserve these sites, but it will help spur economic growth by attracting tourism to these areas.”
