State of Downtown
State of Downtown is the premier gathering of Downtown Alliance stakeholders and takes place every summer. The Alliance honors organizations and individuals who have contributed to the vibrancy of our City with the Downtown Creator Award. We also look ahead to the opportunities and challenges facing Downtown with the release of the Economic Benchmark Report.
