Our vision for this project is to enhance the look and feel of downtown making it a unique place where the community wants to be. Imagine wider sidewalks, easier access and a more inviting atmosphere. We want to bring the community together by enhancing the local environment. Whether you're into events, culture, dining, or just relaxing, we want downtown to be the go-to spot. It's all about making our downtown shine brighter than ever!
