County Executive Ryan McMahon Announces Village of Liverpool Main Street Rehab Project
Over one million dollars to be invested along First Street
SYRACUSE, N.Y. – County Executive J. Ryan McMahon, II announced that six properties
located along First Street in the Village of Liverpool will receive over one million dollars in
public and private investment as part of the New York Main Street program. The properties will
be restored to better reflect the character of the Village of Liverpool including enhancing dated
exteriors, new streetscapes and energy efficient upgrades.
County Executive McMahon said, “Our villages are the heartbeat of our towns and are an
important part of our local economy. I have made investing in our infrastructure, both above and
below ground, a priority and that includes our local village main streets.” McMahon continued,
“This project is not only great news for the Village of Liverpool and Town of Salina, but is a
perfect example of what can happen when the public and private sectors work together.”
The properties that will be improved are 101 & 105, 215, 223, 304, 316 and 324-326 First Street.
Legislator Tassone said, “I have focused much of my time in the County Legislature on creating
a business friendly climate for our Village which means making smart investments in our
infrastructure and our people.” Legislator Tassone continued, “The improvements that will take
place along First Street will go a long way towards building on the work we’ve done and making
our lakeside Village the best it can be.”
Village of Liverpool Mayor Gary White said, “First Street is the gateway for the Village of
Liverpool. We are home to many small businesses that play an important role in making
Liverpool a great place to live and raise a family.” White continued, “I am grateful to County
Executive McMahon and Legislator Tassone for their support of this important project for our
Village.”
Salina Town Supervisor Colleen Gunnip said, “The Town of Salina is proud of everything we
have to offer, especially in the Village of Liverpool. This investment is exciting for everyone and
shows how important and fruitful collaboration can be for our entire community.”
This project is possible thanks to the New York Main Street Program, Onondaga County
Community Development, the Village of Liverpool and the property owners. Construction is
expected to start later this year.
