Re: Downtown District and Downtown Redevelopment Authority Planning $12.1M Project To Improve Main Street
“We thought, ‘How can this area be a destination, how can it be a benefit to the neighborhood and a wonderful place for visitors?’ The first place was art. ”
I can think of one more obvious improvement that should be done first …. get rid of the homeless bums that habituate that entire strip. (But I am sure they will enjoy the art while they are p_ssing on it)
