Redevelopment
Redevelopment Agencies are one of the most
important tools a community has to help breathe new life into areas in need
of revitalization, economic development and new opportunity.
In 1985, the City of Henderson recognized the need to revitalize and
reinvest in some of its maturing neighborhoods and created the City of
Henderson Redevelopment Agency. Since then, Redevelopment has not only
provided funding for physical improvements, but has been building
communities by attracting new business and private investment that have
created new jobs, added public art to neighborhoods, and provided residents
with funding to make improvements to their homes.
Currently, the City of Henderson’s Redevelopment Agency manages
four redevelopment
areas: Downtown, Tuscany, Cornerstone and Eastside.
Water Street District
One of the hottest
downtown redevelopment areas in the Southwest and is
attracting the attention of developers, retailers, restaurateurs,
artists, future residents, and customers.
Programs
There are many
programs offered to assist businesses that reside in either the
Downtown or Eastside redevelopment areas.
Projects

Through redevelopment, a
project area receives
focused attention and financial investment to reverse the trend toward
decay and decline. Redevelopment also helps create jobs, revitalizes
the business climate, rehabilitates and adds to the housing stock and
gains active participation and investment by citizens.
