Right now, behind the scenes in State College, we’re laying the groundwork for innovative projects that will bring even more richness, variety, and purpose to the Borough.
Right now, behind the scenes in State College, we’re laying the groundwork for innovative projects that will bring even more richness, variety, and purpose to the Borough.
The State College Borough Redevelopment Authority (our friends call us “the RDA”) is a champion of community-first development in State College.
We provide seed funding for projects that reinvigorate past-their-prime properties, foster local growth and vibrancy in our community, and support life-enhancing human services so these resources can stay – and thrive – right here in town.
Keep scrolling to learn more about some of our recent projects, or head over to What We Do to learn more about working with the RDA.

While we believe the best of the RDA is yet to come, here are some completed and in progress projects that we’re especially proud of.
