Downtown Revitalization Initiative
The City of Peekskill has been awarded $10 million through Round 4 of New York State's Downtown Revitalization Initiative (DRI) for the Mid-Hudson region. The DRI award will catalyze innovative publicly- and privately-led improvements to Peekskill's downtown and waterfront. These projects will focus on providing safe and convenient pedestrian amenities that link existing community assets with new sites for tourism, the arts, recreation and business growth, generating employment opportunities for a range of skill and wage levels.
