LEWISTOWN East End Coffee Company in Lewistown recently completed rehabilitation of the 18 East Market St. storefront aided in part by a reimbursement grant from Downtown Lewistown Inc.
The brick exterior was cleaned and painted by local painter Jeremy Croissette with recovering of the existing awning frame with a canvas replacement provided by Mid State Awning of Bellefonte. As a stipulation of the grant and in agreement with the Borough of Lewistown, all exterior elevations must be code compliant upon completion. Downtown Lewistown Inc. provided a $2,719 matching reimbursement grant for the facade improvement effort.
