The Edward F. Gerber Urban Preservation Fund supports the preservation of private historic homes in Connecticut. This new, endowed fund allows Historic New England to continue its work to build a powerful network of historic preservation and community stakeholders by providing critical support to historic residential property owners in Connecticut’s urban centers. Through this fund, Historic New England annually awards one grant of up to $10,000 to the owner-occupant of a residential property with no more than four units, located in Bridgeport, Hartford, Manchester, New Britain, New Haven, New London, Norwalk, Stamford, Waterbury, or West Haven. The first annual award will be presented at The Historic New England Summit.
