We are the DowntownABQ MainStreet Initiative, and we are a community redevelopment organization, State designated since 2008. Our mission is to promote and support Downtown’s economic, social, and creative vitality through community-driven projects and programs. A revitalized and vibrant Downtown is a symbol of community economic health, local quality of life, pride, and community identity. We #LoveABQDowntown and we want you to love it, too!

If you want to stay informed of Downtown news and events, email news@abqmainstreet.org and we’ll get you signed up for the Weekly e-newsletter, which goes out every Thursday afternoon to Downtown stakeholders, businesses, and others interested in all things related to Downtown.

If you have news or an event to share, or a great Downtown photo, email news@abqmainstreet.org and we’ll include it in the next issue. Submissions should be received no later than noon on the Tuesday prior to publication. Content should be relevant to Downtown, events no more than two weeks away, and we may edit down for size and clarity. Any images should be sent as a jpeg with your email.
