Over the past 6 months there has been many visual improvements made throughout Keansburg. There is still a long way to go but the commitment and efforts of the Governing Body and Business Community are showing results. Keansburg is on the Rise!
The Commercial Facade Program from Sandy Grants is almost complete! Several businesses on Main Street, Church Street and Carr Avenue have been repaired, painted and received new awnings. Below is a sample of some of the new look.
"The Keansburg Mural Project" has made an visual impact on some of the empty and Sandy battered commercial buildings. Many murals are still a work in progress and Phase 2 has just begun. The Murals are being coordinated by Dr. Sketchy Asbury Park. The volunteer artists are all local and the funding of the project was done with a Kickstarter Donation Campaign for Phase 1 and Phase 2 is being funded by a grant from the Monmouth Arts Council. Thank you to Tim Lucas for coordinating and supervising the Project and all the local artists that are participating.
The old vs. The New
The Adopt-A-Planter Program has also made a difference. The Planters throughout the Borough were painted and maintained by Businesses, Organizations, and families at their expense. Thank you to everyone who participated in making a difference.
