MDF believes that vibrant downtowns can be an economic engine of growth; can serve as an attractant to young people, creative economic ventures, retirees and diverse populations; and can mitigate costly sprawling land use development patterns. That’s why we run the Maine Downtown Center.

 


 

The Maine Downtown Center is a program of the Maine Development Foundation devoted to fostering new vitality at the heart of Maine Communities.

 

The mission of the Maine Downtown Center is to foster downtown development that is dynamic and community-based, and results in economic development, business growth, job creation, housing revitalization, historic preservation, and cultural enhancement.

 

Read about our initial work with six Maine communities to promote downtown revitalization in the January 2002 edition of Down East Magazine.

 

This website contains helpful information about our programs, communities that we are working in partnership with and the approach that we use to promote downtown revitalization. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions. We're here to help!
