Main Street America
Добавлен 10 мар 2014
Main Street America leads a movement committed to strengthening communities through preservation-based economic development in older and historic downtowns and neighborhood commercial districts. For more than 40 years, MSA has provided a practical, adaptable, and impactful framework for community-driven, comprehensive revitalization through the Main Street Approach™. Our network of more than 1,600 neighborhoods and communities, rural and urban, share both a commitment to place and to building stronger communities through preservation-based economic development. Since 1980, communities participating in the program have leveraged more than $101.58 billion in new public and private investment, generated 168,693 net new businesses and 746,897 net new jobs, rehabilitated more than 325,119 buildings, and levered over 33.7 million volunteer hours. Main Street America is a nonprofit subsidiary of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. For more information, visit www.mainstreet.org.

I wish I had the money to move to Empire Kansas so I could be home I'm trying but it's really hard right now
Wsup y'all remember me
This is not the direction I want to Wyoming moving toward. Look at what happened to Colorado
As someone who lives in Cheyenne fort Collins is far better for an equal drive.
I lived in West Helena from 94-97. Your place looks really amazing. If I go back to visit (not sure why) I'd be sure to stop in. I'm back in Florida and will order online and try it. Good luck Harvey. ❤
Unfortunately I don’t qualify 🤦🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🙃🙁 Business has to have a Brick N Motar location & you have to have been operating for a year ➕! Very detailed informative video. 2 hours is extremely long though 😂 next time try to shorten it up lol. Finding grants for your business can be tedious but I’m hanging in there 💪🏾🙌🏾❤‼️
Small Businesses are the backbone of America
Metuchen slays bestie
Woooooooooow nice
Great question @rogerlund1754. NuMarket uses its own platform to host the campaigns and also to send out credits. Goals vary widely, the team works with you to set a realistic one that helps your business.
This was terrific. What is the actual mechanism that was used to raise the funds? Was it a traditional GoFundMe process that simply provided this type of payback to the investor? Was it an ongoing fundraising effort or was it during a finite period of time? How does one set a realistic goal?
I love Macon! The transformation downtown is amazing!
I love Laramie! It's got a great downtown and a lot of cute businesses. Great farmers market. Super safe. A fun place!
🙏🏾
Go Metuchen!! 🎉
Covington Kentucky is Loserville,. It's Police (Perpetration) Department has a long history if using excessive force. I am a disabled nurse ,senior citizen, and unarmed.In 2021 the shot me in the BACK with a Taser resulting in permanent injury. I am one of MANY people they have used it on, they even used excessive force on the woman (another cop) who is now the Sheriff of Hamilton County Ohio where Cincinnati is Charmaine McGuffey. BOYCOTT ALL BUSINESS IN COVINGTON KENTUCKY UNTIL COVINGTON COPS START GOING TO PRISON.
Are you people drunk? I live here and Macon is a crap hole. Crime is widespread and if you want to get mugged by a homeless person then go downtown. "Lester the idiot" is a joke. All he does is focus on the drunks downtown but lets the rest of Macon get robbed, shot and murdered. Congrats on all the focus on a 10 block span of Macon. Please save some money for the rest of our funerals. Thanks Lester.....for not a damn thing.
Great Town history and the kind of place families look for ......
It was made in around 1978. My father Jared Shlaes was one of the people behind it and appears all through it. Much of it was filmed in Rapid City South Dakota. I know because he brought me with him for the filming. I'm pleased to see how well it holds up.
What an inspiration!
❤ Laramie
Thank you for this informative webinar and thank you AMEX for this incredible grant opportunity! I greatly appreciate the work of the Main Street team and organization to support so many small businesses in historic communities.
So how can I receive the grant successfully
❤
Best brewery hands down.
Top of the line, bless you, and I will support you. I hope to meet you soon, in Helena
❤❤❤❤
I commend and salute you. You make us all proud. Keep up the good fight. EDIT: Just saw that you make Gin. Placing my order now! CHS class of '82.
So much history here! Thanks so much for sharing this information! Salute to Black History! ♥️
Yet so many still vote for DemoKKKrats,It boggles the mind
I’m from West Virginia and I have always wanted to come to Laramie to experience a Cowboys game and enjoy the Town of Laramie. One day I hope.
Nice content, very thoughtful.
Hi Matt, this is Ruby from Taiwan. I am so glad to hear the podcast.
Hey Ruby, so hope you are doing well! Great to hear from you! Best - Matt
Been through Laramie several times. Considered it for my retirement home. Bit too small though. Get off I-80 and go up north about 7 blocks and it's the University of Wyoming. Go up about 5 more blocks and it's the north edge of town. Nice college town. But I would get cabin fever soon. And the winds! Lordy, turn in the wind machine to 45 mph sustained winds, add in -10° cold and see how long you can take that. Yikes.
I can't get past 14:19
Hi, can you explain the problem you are having?
@@NationalMainStreet I got it going. It was buffering and wouldn't go past 14:19 so I went in through another link.
This is great! I love so many little pockets of our Main Street community here in Hattiesburg, MS. Looking forward to sharing!
Nice to see you on your Main Street and learn about some of your favorite businesses. I look forward to sharing my Main Street video.
We can't wait to see it!
Really smart use of social media to connect with folks. Hatching the plan for our video with a few of our co-collaborators here in Princeton, NJ. We're pretty close to Brooklyn too and would love to host you some time! Welcome Erin!
We're sure your video will be fantastic! We can't wait!
