Continuing to Serve the Main Street District

We want you to know that, in these very difficult times, City Center Partnership is working to maintain our mission of enhancing the vitality of the community, particularly the Main Street District.  That includes continuing to provide key services while keeping you, our Yellow Shirts, and our staff safe.
 
We encourage you to support downtown businesses when it’s possible.  The Main Street District’s employers, restaurants, residents, hotels, and cultural institutions continue to adjust to the COVID-19-related disruptions.  City Center Partnership will continue to advocate for them and share information when helpful.
