PRESS RELEASE – GREENVILLE DOWNTOWN DESIGN STUDIO ON SATURDAY, JULY 16

GREENVILLE: The City of Greenville wants to hear from residents, employees, visitors, and other stakeholders about Downtown and what it could be in the future. Feedback on what should be preserved, what should be changed, and what the Vision of the Downtown could be in the future will be key to the planning process.

The Downtown Design Studio is a come-and-go event from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Saturday, July 16, 2022. There will also be a presentation that you can attend at 5:00 p.m. to review the day’s observations. This event will be hosted at the Landmark on Lee Street located at 2920 Lee Street in Downtown Greenville.

The Downtown Master Plan’s website, www.DTGreenvilleTX.com is the Digital Project Hub that has opportunities for collaboration, like “Big, Bold Ideas” which is live through the end of August and welcomes all to provide feedback for Downtown Greenville! Once the Downtown Design Studio is complete, a recap will be drafted by the Planning Team and will be posted for review.

The feedback and ideas gathered from this Downtown Design Studio will contribute to the creation of the Downtown Master Plan so please be sure to attend and help spread the word to your neighbors, friends, and coworkers! There will be a bounce house and a Kids’ Design Station, as well as fun and meaningful activities for all ages within the community to collaborate on what should happen Downtown. The Studio will be followed by a short presentation highlighting the day’s observations and ideas from 5:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. and all are welcome to attend!

“We have a great opportunity to ensure that Downtown is a fun, vibrant, and thriving destination for people to live, work, play, study, and more. We are at a stage in our city’s development that involves an important commitment that needs to be made – to properly and fully support Downtown through planning, design, funding, improvements, and bold action,” said Mayor Jerry Ransom. Come to the Downtown Design Studio on July 16th and ensure that your voice is heard, and your feedback is captured!
