Title: Main Street Program - Tulsa? Post by: PonderInc on January 31, 2008, 02:37:45 pm Is Tulsa participating in the Oklahoma Main Street program? If not...why not?
I remember hearing rumors that the 11th Street (Rt 66) merchants wanted to be a part of this. Then there was talk about something in SW Tulsa. From looking at the website, I don't see Tulsa as a participating community. Sounds like a terrific opportunity for Tulsa. And I especially think Rt. 66 is ripe for revitalization...and any assistance would be welcomed. From the OK Main Street website (http://"http://www.okcommerce.gov/index.php?option=com_content&task=category§ionid=4&id=99&Itemid=667"): The Oklahoma Main Street Center provides training and technical assistance for preservation-based commercial district revitalization. There are 42 communities in the Oklahoma Main Street program that actively implement the Four-Point Main Street ApproachTM to commercial district revitalization developed by the National Main Street Center. The Oklahoma Main Street Center also administers DesignWorks, a community design assistance program, in cooperation with the Oklahoma Arts Council. Title: Main Street Program - Tulsa?
