FAIRMONT - Main
Street Fairmont continues its revitalization efforts in downtown area and
beyond.
Main Street Executive Director Kate Greene gave Marion County Commission an update today, including Main Street's purchase of two connecting buildings downtown located on Adams Street.
Greene said the property will be an asset to the community.
"It is a building that is designed as two separate buildings, but they share an interior second floor. Our goal was to own both buildings. Those are scheduled to be redeveloped as affordable housing on the second floor and retail on the second floor."
Main Street Fairmont is presenting its connectivity plan to city officials in hopes it will be part of the comprehensive plan.
