Welcome to Havre de Grace Main Street!

The Havre de Grace Main Street program is one of a network of statewide, citywide, and countywide Main Street programs, with more than 2,100 active Main Street programs nationally.

All have been chartered by the National Trust for Historic Preservation over the past several years to revitalize their downtown business districts and preserve their historic character.

Cumulatively, the districts taking part in the program have Lafayettegenerated more than $45 billion in new investment, with a gain of more than 370,000 new jobs and 83,000 new businesses. Every $1 a community uses to support its local Main Street program leverages an average of $40.35 in new investment, making the Main Street program one of the most successful economic development strategies in America.

The Main Street District encompasses the downtown area delineated on the north by the railroad bridge at 500 Union Avenue, on the east by St. John Street and Market Street, on the south by Girard Street, and on the west by Freedom Lane. This geographical area also matches exactly the new Havre de Grace Arts & Entertainment District, recently designated by the State of Maryland, pursuant to application by Havre de Grace Main Street, Inc.  

Our office is located in the heart of the Main Street district at 121 North Union Avenue, Suite D, Havre de Grace, MD 21078. The office is open all day on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays, unless marked as a holiday on the Calendar. Main Street's
Arts by the Bay Gallery is located at 500-B Warren Street and is open on Thursdays and Sundays from 1 pm to 5 pm, and Fridays and Saturdays from 12 pm to 6 pm. For more information about Havre de Grace Main Street, please telephone 410-939-181.
  

  

          HISTORIC PRESERVATION --  RESTORE -- REHAB -- REUSE

Instead of wasting or destroying our resources, including existing buildings and communities, we should be saving and making wise use of them. At its core, that's what sustainability is all about. It's also what historic preservation is all about. Making that connection will help ensure a future for our heritage--and our planet---Richard Moe, President, National Trust for Historic Preservation
