The La Salle City Council approved a $12,500 redevelopment incentive program grant last week.

The building, the former La Salle Office Supply at 907 First St., will be receiving a facelift now that the council unanimously approved a grant to Margie King for facade improvements. The improvements specifically hone in on replacing the windows and doors on the first and second floor and a new storefront.

Alderman John Lavieri said King’s rendering of her project was tremendous.

“It looks good and they’re not finished,” Alderman Tom Ptak said.

In January, the council unanimously approved petitions by David Raccuglia to subdivide 901 First St. into two buildings, 901 and 907 First Street – for commercial space and, above 907 First St., a single-family residential component.
