The Main Street Program is a community-driven initiative aimed at revitalizing historic downtown areas in the United States. Established in 1980 by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, the program focuses on economic development, preservation of historic buildings, and enhancing the overall quality of life in these areas. It encourages local stakeholders to collaborate on projects that promote business growth and community engagement. The program utilizes a comprehensive approach known as the Four Point Approach, which includes organization, promotion, design, and economic restructuring. By fostering partnerships among local businesses, government, and residents, the Main Street Program helps create vibrant, sustainable communities that celebrate their unique heritage.
