We are part of a national movement formed to improve the quality of life in sm
all town America and to invigorate the economic health of the Historic Main Street central business districts. The Main Street Program, developed and administered by the nonprofit National Main Street Center of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, has utilized a public-private partnership of private investment, local government support, and local non-profit assistance to revitalize historic commercial districts. Since 2010, the Historic Willamette Main Street Association has had a positive effect on the revitalization of West Linn’s Willamette Business District and the town as a whole. This locally-driven, hands-on, grass roots, self-help approach has met much success with its focus on four main points: Economic Vitality, Promotions, Design and Outreach/Organization.
