Welcome

Welcome to the 125th Street BID's Merchant Organizing Blog! As you can see, the section of the BID website dedicated to the Merchant Organizing Initiative is up and running at last! Within the next couple of weeks, this section should include a directory of all of the businesses located in the target area (125th Street, west of Morningside Avenue).

Today, we mailed out our first Commercial Tenants Needs Assessment Survey to the 125th Street businesses located west of Morningside Avenue. This survey will help us to determine the most important issues and concerns for businesses in the area, and what steps need to be taken to address these needs. We can't wait to hear the responses! In the coming weeks, we will also be preparing and mailing a Needs Assessment Survey to the owners of the properties in the target area. Next week, we will be working hard on the application to receive funding for these efforts in FY2014.

For more information or to let us know about events, promotions, or offers at your business, please email Jennifer at jsilverberg@125thstreetbid.com. We look forward to hearing from you!
