Main Street Programs aim to revitalize their downtowns and commercial districts through preservation-based economic development and community revitalization. The "Main Street Project"[1] commenced in 1977 with a pilot involving 3 towns: Galesburg, Illinois, Madison, Indiana, and Hot Springs, South Dakota.[2] Based on the success in those three towns a pilot project followed in six states: Texas, Colorado, Georgia, Massachusetts, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania.[3] Since then, the program has been expanded to include many other towns. These may be statewide or regional "coordinating programs" or "local programs." Programs determined to be "Designated" follow best-practices established by the National Main Street Center and/or statewide or regional coordinating programs.[4]. One requirement of being a "Designated" program is to appoint a full-time staff member, often called a main street manager. In 2020, there were 860 Nationally Accredited Main Street America programs and 44 Coordinating Programs.[5]

Originally field staff with the National Trust for Historic Preservation in Chicago were instrumental in starting the "Main Street Project." One of the three original "Main Street Project" communities was in Galesburg, Illinois, from 1977-1979. Donna Ann Harris was the State Coordinator of the Illinois Main Street Program between 2000 and 2002.[8]. Presently Kelly Humrichouser is state coordinator for the Illinois Main Street program that has 19 active programs across the state.[9]

The Maine Development Foundation serves as the coordinating program for Maine. In August 2018, Main Street Maine communities launched a website to share authentic Maine downtown experiences, featuring businesses and attractions in each city and town with the National Main Street designation.

After the "Main Street Project" concluded in 1979, Massachusetts was one the first six states selected for establishment of a statewide coordinating program. At the time of founding banking industry leaders held two conferences to discuss innovative financing programs.[19] Under the leadership of then Boston Mayor Thomas Menino, a citywide coordinating program was established in Boston. This has since grown to include 22 designated Main Street programs in Boston.[20]

Mississippi

Missouri

Missouri has over 160 commercial districts participating in Missouri Main Street. A state-wide non-profit organization was formed in 2004 and recognizes communities in the following categories: Accredited, Associate, Affiliate, and Aspiring. There are 7 accredited communities with the highest level of designation.[24] Gayla Roten as been State Director since November 2007. She is assisted in that role by a staff of six.[25]

Rhode Island

South Carolina

South Dakota

One of the three original "Main Street Project" communities was in Hot Springs, South Dakota, from 1977-1979. As of 2021, however, there are no Main Street America designated programs in South Dakota, nor is there an active state coordinating program. Of the downtowns in South Dakota some follow the Main Street Approach, while others are a downtown association or chamber of commerce format.[31]

Non-Designated Communities

Tennessee

Texas

After the "Main Street Project" concluded in 1979, Texas one was one the first six states selected for establishment of a statewide coordinating program. Texas Main Street was established under the Texas Historical Commission and based in Austin, Texas.[35]. In 1981, Seguin received a "Resource Team" that spent a week with business and civic leaders, bankers, elected officials, and the newly appointed Main Street Manager. Over the next 3 years plans to rehab several building were aided by a low-interest loan pool established by local banks.[36] Anice Read led the program from the start until she retired in 1996.[37] As of 2021, Debra Drescher leads a 9-person staff serving 88 communities.[38]
