Lt. Gov. Austin Davis made a stop today in the Mon Valley, where he grew up and represented in the state House, to highlight the Shapiro-Davis Administration's historic investments in 81 community projects - including eight in Allegheny County - through the new Main Street Matters program."Growing up in the Mon Valley, I saw firsthand the issues many of our communities have with blight and disinvestment," said Lt. Governor Davis. "I heard all the stories about how great McKeesport's Fifth Avenue used to be, but I want us to start a new chapter. While Pennsylvania's downtowns and Main Streets are often windows into our past, Governor Shapiro and I know that they can be economic engines for our future. As we look around at all of the chaos happening in Washington and on Wall Street, it's important to remember that investing in Main Street is a smart investment."Munhall Borough is receiving more than $460,000 in Main Street Matters funding to make streetscape improvements in their business district. Lt. Governor Davis announced the grant today at a news conference on Munhall's Main Street and took a tour of local businesses, including The Pizza Company and Draft House.List of Speakers:Munhall Mayor Rob FalceLt.
