For 276 years, the Trenton Free Public Library has connected generations of residents to books, resources and community. Today, the City of Trenton and the Library celebrated the completion of more than $830,000 in accessibility improvements at New Jersey's oldest library.

Mayor Gusciora and Senator Shirley Turner joined the ribbon-cutting ceremony and shared remarks on the importance of making the Library's resources and services accessible to every Trenton resident. Members of Trenton City Council also attended, celebrating a project they helped make possible through their authorization.

Funded through the City's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, the project includes a redesigned entrance ramp, new stairs, upgraded accessibility features and improved entrance doors, providing safer and easier access to the Library.

Thank you to Trenton City Council for supporting this investment, the Trenton Free Public Library and everyone who helped bring these improvements to our community.

Thank you to the Trenton Community Street Team and every resident who took the time to share their thoughts. Your voices help shape these important conversations.

The Novella Center for Entrepreneurship is helping bring new businesses to Trenton, and MyMonitor.AI is the latest example.

The healthcare technology company first connected with our city through Novella’s Conscious Venture Lab Accelerator Program, which provides business training and guidance to entrepreneurs. After participating in the program, founder and CEO Charles Mbata decided to move his company from Philadelphia and establish its new headquarters at 1 West State Street.

Mayor Gusciora joined Mbata for the ribbon-cutting ceremony on Tuesday, welcoming Trenton’s newest business downtown.

Congratulations to Charles Mbata and the MyMonitor.AI team, and thank you to the Novella Center for Entrepreneurship for helping connect emerging businesses with our city. We look forward to seeing MyMonitor.AI grow alongside our community!

EVENT UPDATE: In light of The Black Agenda Rally and public interest in both events, the City of Trenton has rescheduled the Historic Carver Center Groundbreaking Ceremony to Tuesday, October 20, at 12 PM. Our previous post was removed to avoid confusion. Please refer to this updated flyer for the correct event details.

For more than a century, the Carver Center has been part of Trenton’s African American history and community. The City is taking an important step toward preserving this landmark for future generations.

Join Mayor Gusciora, City officials and community members for the groundbreaking of Phase 1 of the Historic Carver Center Restoration Project on Tuesday, October 20, at 12 PM. The project is supported by more than $2.5 million in federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds for critical roof restoration work to help protect the building from further deterioration.

Located at 40 Fowler Street, the Carver Center was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2022. This restoration marks a continued investment in Trenton’s history and the preservation of a landmark with deep roots in the community.

We look forward to having you join us for this milestone.
