The Miami Main Street program is a new division of the Miami Downtown Development Authority operating in conjunction with the Coleman Theatre and the Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau. The Main Street program encourages economic revitalization in Oklahoma communities and neighborhood districts through historic preservation in ways appropriate to today’s marketplace. By focusing efforts to bring v
ibrancy to your historic commercial district, the local program can find the self-reliance and empowerment needed to increase the quality of life for residents. The Main Street program includes historic preservation, downtown revitalization efforts, and powerful economic stimulation combined to restore the core assets of communities. Miami Main Street will assist the downtown district by helping develop and implement a plan for downtown improvements and promoting downtown businesses and events. We will work to create beautification for public spaces and façade improvements. As a participating partner in the Main Street program, we are eligible for grants and programs through the state of Oklahoma that will directly benefit our downtown area. The Miami Main Street program will be launching a series of community conversations to meet with partners interested in the organization. These committees will include promotion, design, organization, and economic vitality. Each committee will play an important role in the success of the program.
