We're a coalition of neighbors, business owners, and community members working to revitalize one of Ithaca's most iconic neighborhoods.
Over the past few years, Collegetown has lost beloved businesses that defined the neighborhood for generations. Restaurants have closed. Bars that hosted decades of memories have shuttered. Storefronts sit empty.
But that's not the end of the story—it's the beginning of ours.
