Brunswick is honoring its past while shaping its future. Restoration of the Berlin House and upcoming renovations at the Kaplon Building reflect our commitment to preserving historic charm. The new B&O Railroad Park and train station improvements celebrate our rail heritage, while events like the Scholastic Bike Race on the River’s Edge Trails showcase Brunswick as a destination for outdoor adventure and community connection.

Brunswick Main Street and the City of Brunswick have partnered together to once again secure funding for the Brunswick Building Blocks Program. Currently there is $275,000.00 that is available for properties on Main Street and Brunswick City. At this time, properties in the Main Street District will be given priority, however, Brunswick City businesses may still apply for possible award. Selected applicants will receive a one-time award to improve eligible commercial properties. Ideal projects will strengthen the property’s infrastructure, and therefore, have a major impact on the building’s overall usability, viability, and marketability.
