| The Board of Directors of the Downtown Danville Association
(DDA) believes that a vibrant downtown is critical to the quality
of life and the economic well being the City of Danville and
the surrounding area. Our vision of a vibrant downtown includes
economically viable and unique businesses, attractions, restaurants
and residential areas that serve to attract local citizens to
visit the Downtown and to entice future residents to relocate
into the area. We further believe that the community will fail
to thrive if the core is allowed to erode into in a condition
of blight and decay.
Based on these beliefs, the DDA Board dedicates itself to
the principles of the Virginia Main Street Program which have
been successful in the restoration of numerous downtown business
areas.
Organization of available people and assets,
Economic restructuring to employ, renew and revitalize,
Design efforts to highlight the old and merge with
the new,
Promotion to attract investment, visitation and commerce.
The DDA Board understands that the revitalization of Downtown
Danville is both a process and a journey and will, therefore,
undertake to exhibit the patience, persistence, and perseverance
necessary to accomplish its goals and objectives.
