Main Street Program
What is the Main Street Program?
Main Street is a downtown redevelopment program at work in over 40 states and over a thousand cities nationwide. It uses a combination of economic development, infrastructure improvements, promotions and a cooperative effort that seeks to revitalize downtown areas. The Texas Historical Commission administers the Texas Main Street Program and designated Huntsville as a Main Street City in 2001.
Vision
We envision Downtown Huntsville as being historically inviting, economically prosperous and socially and culturally engaging for our community and visitors.
