In 2015, DHBC launched a new Gritty to Pretty beautification program to award a limited number of grants for beautification projects located in Downtown Halifax. Gritty to Pretty includes three grants: an Open Grant for any great beautification initiative, one specifically for Façade Lighting and one for Murals. These projects contribute to DHBC’s beautification efforts to make Downtown Halifax welcoming to locals and visitors alike.
