About our association

Who Are We?

Lincoln Village Business Assn. is a proud partner with Wisconsin Main Street Program. We are dedicated to the revitalzation of the Lincoln Village Business District.

Since November of 2001, the Main Street 4-Point Approach (T) has rendered a net gain of 12 new businesses, 62 new full time jobs and over 4 million dollars in business district investment.

What is The Main Street Program?
A comprehensive revitalization program designed to promote the historic and economic redevelopment of traditional business districts in Wisconsin.
The Wisconsin Main Street Program was established in 1987 to encourage and support the revitalization of downtowns in Wisconsin communities. Each year, the Department of Commerce selects communities to join the program. These communities receive technical support and training needed to restore their Main Streets to centers of community activity and commerce.
The results in Wisconsin have been impressive. Wisconsin Main Street Programs have brought significant numbers of new businesses and jobs to their respective downtowns. Facade improvements and building rehabilitation projects have upgraded the image of Main Street. Promotional activities bring the community together in a positive way.

The Four-Point Approach
In 1980, the National Trust for Historic Preservation established the National Main Street Center to assist nationwide downtown revitalization efforts. The Wisconsin Main Street Program is based on the Trust's philosophy, which advocates restoration of the historic character of downtown while pursuing traditional development strategies such as marketing, business recruitment and retention, real estate development, market analysis, and public improvements.

There are no quick fixes for declining downtowns, but success can be realized through the comprehensive and incremental approach of the Main Street Program.
