Our goal is to improve the economic well-being in Schuyler County, and the region, through a community-driven, collaborative approach that fosters economic vitality by attracting new capital investment; facilitating commercial and residential development; and creating sustainable, living wage employment opportunities.
The FLX Gateway CDC focuses its efforts on community-focused activities, which include beautification efforts like flower planters and signage, themed décor for race season, organized clean-up efforts, and spearheading the new co-working space in downtown Watkins Glen, to name a few.
