The grants from the program, for low- and moderate-income homeowners in various historic districts around the city, provide up to $25,000 for repairs. Awardees in the Anacostia Historic District can receive up to $35,000
The eligible historic districts are Shaw, Takoma Park, U Street, Fourteenth Street, Capitol Hill, LeDroit Park, Mount Vernon Square, Mount Vernon Triangle, Blagden Alley/Naylor Court, the Strivers’ Section, and Mount Pleasant.
