Downtown Discovery Package

Clarity when you need it most

The Downtown Discovery Package is a short, focused engagement designed to help communities understand what is really happening downtown and where to start next. It is not a plan and it is not a study. It is a guided, expert assessment that replaces uncertainty with clarity.

During a one day visit, we experience your downtown firsthand. We walk the district, document what is working and what is holding it back, and listen closely to local leaders and stakeholders. The goal is to see your downtown the way visitors, residents, and business owners experience it and translate those observations into practical insight.

You receive a visual summary that clearly outlines strengths, gaps, and missed opportunities, along with a small set of realistic actions you can take right away. These recommendations are tailored to your size, capacity, and budget and include guidance on what to focus on now and what should wait.

This service is ideal for towns that feel stuck, communities without a recent downtown plan, or new leaders who want expert perspective before committing to a larger effort.

Best for: stuck communities, places without a recent plan, new leaders needing perspective

Investment: $3,000-$5,000

“The Downtown Discovery Package is like having a traveling expert spend a day in your town, uncovering its hidden potential and pointing you to exactly where you can start next.”
