You know your downtown is hiding them everywhere. No need to be ashamed. Mine is too. It can be hard enough to get an owner to make the windows look simply presentable from the street view and here I am asking you to do more.
It’s time to get serious about the levels above your Main Street.
Housing is hot and there’s more demand than ever for loft living, condos with character, co-living, and apartments that are cute as hell.
Downtown housing gives a built in customer base to Main Street businesses. Keeps more eyes on the street for safety. Most importantly, it gives your community housing choice so you can retain citizens by having the homes they want to live in. If housing seems like a stretch, think about spaces for a dance studio, offices, or maker space for small scale manufacturing.
