We are a partnership involving:

  • The East Bayfront Neighborhood Watch
  • Erie Insurance Group
  • Hamot Health Foundation
  • The City of Erie

Our Vision is to improve the quality of life in the East Bayfront Neighborhood for the residents and assure a stable, desirable working environment for businesses and their employees.

BEST focuses on activities in the area between State Street and Wayne Street from the north side of East Sixth Street north to Front Street.

BEST was first formed in the 1970s as a non-profit development arm of Erie Insurance to rehabilitate the Federal Row townhouses on Holland Street between East Fourth and East Fifth Street. BEST was deactivated for about 20 years after accomplishing this goal. It was reactivated in 2000 as a partnership between the East Bayfront Neighborhood Watch, Hamot and Erie Insurance in response to the East Bayfront Neighborhood Strategic Plan.

BEST goals are to promote:

  • Quality Housing
  • Youth and Safety Programs
  • Coordinated City Services
  • Positive Neighborhood Image

BEST is financially supported by many local organizations. Contact us for more information.
