The Village of Waverly was awarded $4.5 million through the NY Forward program, a companion project to the Downtown Revitalization Initiative that has provided millions of dollars to the City of Elmira and other Southern Tier communities.

Improvements included a new outdoor patio, upgraded site lighting, new energy-efficient siding and insulation, complete roof replacement, and the rehabilitation of the parking lot.
