Working with the Town of Hempstead, the Locustwood / Gotham Civic Association helped petition a Restore New York Grant to revitalize our down town area. $100 million were awarded to various projects across the state through competitive grants. Despite this large figure, three quarters went to needed funding of upstate projects, that left the Long Island area with a total of $7 million.
Fortunately, for the residents of Elmont, the Restore New York with the works of the civic and the Town of Hempstead helped secure $2.5 million for the Argo Theatre / Down Town Project. We hope to continue working hard with the Town to secure a brighter future and securing the essence of our suburban residential community.

I want to congratulate the board of the Locustwood/Gotham Civic Association for their efforts in securing the grant to help revitalize Elmont. In addition, I would like to extend my congatulations and say thanks to Xavier for the excellent job of building and maintaining the elmontcivic.com WEB site.
