America Downtown®

America Downtown® — New Thinking. New Life. is a fee-based, comprehensive, technical assistance program offered by the National League of Cities in conjunction with HyettPalma. The program was created in 1992 and provides direct, hands-on help to local government officials who want to start, refocus, or energize their Downtown enhancement efforts.

All technical assistance services offered through the America Downtown® program are provided exclusively by HyettPalma, Inc.

The program’s strengths and successes are built on the following convictions.

• The assistance provided is implementation-oriented — not another Downtown plan or study but an aggressive course of action that local officials and community leaders can start to implement immediately.
  
  
• The recommendations made for each Downtown are pragmatic — tailored to local resources so that they can be realistically implemented.
  
  
• The solutions offered are success-oriented — designed to improve each Downtown’s economy so that the results are long-lasting.
  
  
• The on-site assistance is inclusive — providing a forum that brings public and private sector constituents together to identify Downtown issues, define a Downtown vision, and take needed actions in partnership.

Each community participating in the America Downtown® program receives on-site, hands-on technical assistance designed to move that community’s Downtown on to a brighter economic future. This technical assistance takes the form of a Downtown Action Agenda which is completed by HyettPalma, Inc.
