Gloucester is looking to improve downtown signage with a $132,000 state grant being put toward “phase two” of the city’s wayfinding project.
The City Council approved the Massachusetts Downtown Initiative Capital Grant by an 8-1 vote at its Oct. 27 meeting. The money will be used for “phase two” of the Downtown Wayfinding System project, Economic Development Coordinator Emily Sloane said.
