The Geneva Business Improvement District focuses on tenant retention & recruitment, streetscape projects, sidewalk maintenance, economic development, grant information, downtown beautification, and Holiday lighting and decorations. We also host 2 annual events every year: Cruisin' Night and the Light Up Geneva Auction. Proceeds from both events go back into the city in the form of flowers and beautification efforts and yearly Holiday lighting upgrades. We also sell advertising space on the NEW downtown Kiosk, as well as offer state of the art teleconferencing capabilities in our board room at One Franklin Square.
Enjoy a craft beer, German Food and some fine music Saturday in Downtown...and while you're Downtown, shop in some of Geneva's wonderful stores.
Many thanks to Hobart and William Smith students for cleaning the Seneca Lake shoreline near Castle Creek. Recent heavy rains created flooding, and pushed debris along the Lakefront. Many thanks to these students as they helped improve the community we all share!
What a gorgeous evening we had for Cruisin Night...here's some great pics by Tim Jennings...Thanks, Tim.
I hope everyone had as lovely a Cruisin' Night as we did! Many thanks to all of our dedicated volunteers and comittee members for stepping up when we needed you 👏👏👏
If you took any photos 📸 at the block party that you want to share we would LOVE to see them, just remember to tag Geneva Business Improvement District!!!

This past Saturday was Hobart and William Smith Colleges' Day of Service. The Geneva BID was fortunate to have had several students help with some spring cleaning in Downtown Geneva. As you can see, numerous bags of trash were picked up. Also, some students worked on primping the flower beds. Many thanks to HWS and Katie Flowers for helping beautify Downtown Geneva, and foster community involvement ans spirit!
