Why Downtown is Important to the Community?
Symbolic Value of Downtown
-
Community economic health
-
Local quality of life
-
Local pride
-
Partnership between private and public sectors
-
Physical, historical and cultural heritage
-
Community identity
Downtown is an important community symbol-the traditional center of government, finance, commercial activity and civic life.
But the value of downtown to the entire community is more than just symbolic.
Everyone-not just downtown business and property owners, but every segment of the community-has a real stake in the economic health of the downtown. This concept of community ownership is an important principle in Main Street's comprehensive approach to downtown revitalization.
