Discussing Critical Issues, Problems and Opportunities

Across the nation in downtowns large and small, leaders and stakeholders are beginning to ask questions such as:
Where will retail be in downtowns like ours as we recover from this very stressful crisis?

What are the best opportunities for regaining, and possibly increasing, the strength of our downtown’s retailing?

What strategies, projects, and programs can help us achieve those potentials?

To address these critical questions, on October 6, 2021 The American Downtown Revitalization Review (The ADRR) together with the University of Wisconsin Madison – Extension presented an online panel discussion on Bringing Back Downtown Retail After COVID-19. The discussion included three nationally known experts with many years of retail development experience: Kristen Fish-Peterson, Michael J. Berne, and N. David Milder. The discussion focused on downtown and Main Street districts in communities under 75,000 in population.

We believe every challenge deserves a unique solution.

No two markets are alike and therefore should not be wedged into a standard process. We approach each project from the client’s perspective and work to deliver a high-quality, usable, forward-thinking, custom-designed solution based on the specific circumstances of that time, place, and other affecting factors.
