Who We Are
MainStreet of Fremont exists to improve the quality of life in Fremont by strengthening the historic downtown as the center of the community. The purpose of MainStreet of Fremont is to encourage, promote, and support downtown Fremont's economic vitality, as well as the image and appearance of downtown.
What We Believe
MainStreet of Fremont capitalized on the idea that the downtown is the center of community life, and more than just a place of commerce. We believe that a revitalized downtown benefits the community because an active downtown is a symbol of community economic health, local quality of life, pride, and community history.
In Fremont, MainStreet just doesn’t include the “Main Street,” it encompasses the entire downtown district. MainStreet of Fremont is a resource to the entire community. We emphasize the infrastructure and the business located between 1st and Military Ave, and C to Broad Streets. The historic district is designated as Main Street between 3rd and 6th and 6th Street between Main St and Park Ave.
MainStreet of Fremont is founded on eight effective principles for success that are carried out through the Four Point Approach. Through the work of volunteer committees, the four point approach encourages economic development of business improvement, design, organization, and promotion. When working simultaneously and comprehensively, they help keep downtown thriving by addressing present as well as future strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and challenges.
