MORE ABOUT MAINSTREET
MainStreet is a community-driven organization dedicated to the revitalization of older, traditional business districts throughout the United States. It is a common-sense way to address the variety of issues and problems that face traditional business districts. The underlying premise of the Main Street is to encourage economic development within the context of historic preservation in ways appropriate to today's marketplace.
The Main Street approach advocates a return to community self-reliance, local empowerment, and the rebuilding of traditional commercial districts based on their unique assets: distinctive architecture, a pedestrian-friendly environment, personal service, local ownership, and a sense of community. The MainStreet approach is tailored to meet local needs and opportunities. It is incremental; it is not designed to produce immediate change. In order to succeed, a long-term revitalization effort requires careful attention to every aspect of downtown - a process that takes time and requires leadership and local support.
