NDC LENDS BRIDGEPORT THE TOOLS FOR DOWNTOWN REVITALIZATION NEW MARKETS TAX CREDITS, HISTORIC TAX CREDITS AND A GAF LOAN KEY TO CITY’S REINVESTMENT

February 17, 2012

NDC is proud to highlight the achievements of Philip Kuchma and his work in Bridgeport, CT. Kuchma is leading a revitalization effort that is transforming a key area of downtown. Included in this effort is Bijou Square, a project financed with NDC’s New Markets Allocation, Historic Tax Credits and a GAF Small Business loan to Two Boots Pizzeria. The project involved the renovation of eight buildings on Fairfield Avenue, including a former Vaudeville Theatre House.  The theatre reopened last summer and added an 84-unit apartment complex, parking lot, offices, restaurants and a gourmet cheese shop that relocated from Westport.
