Susan Blumenthal Pride of Ownership
Dec. 04, 2024
The Ithaca Rotary Club will announce its annual Susan Blumenthal Pride of Ownership awards, which recognizes property owners who develop projects or take care of their properties in ways that enhance the physical appearance of city neighborhoods and commercial areas.
Founded by former Common Council member Susan Blumenthal, who felt that developers and property owners should receive recognition for work that went above and beyond the requirements of the project, the awards are focused on projects that are thoughtful, unexpected, and lift the aesthetic experience of their setting and surroundings.
Awards are granted for properties located within the City of Ithaca including commercial projects, rental housing, owner-occupied housing, and other projects. The awards focus on how properties appear from the street and public right-of-way, improve their local surroundings, and thereby increase the quality of life for the city as a whole.
