MAINSTREET CORONADO LTD

Description

Coronado MainStreet Ltd. was started by the City of Coronado in 1988 when our downtown was deteriorating and had a vacancy rate of 35%. The City adopted the successful "Four Point Approach", a program developed by the National Main Street Center, part of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, as the strategy to revitalize our commercial area. This unique approach identified and solved our particular problems through community consensus building, making Coronado the diverse and vibrant meeting place that it is today. We consider our constituents to be all residents, businesses, property owners and visitors. Perhaps founding Board Member Chris Ackerman, AIA, said it best: "Coronado’s Main Street has become the community’s living room and, more importantly, a family room."
