Our
Mission Our mission is to revitalize downtown Brunswick as an
attractive and lively city center. We will protect our historic
architecture, strengthen our businesses, preserve our parks and green
spaces, and honor our history.
Our Vision
Our vision for Brunswick is a
downtown that is the focal point of entertainment, shopping, and
tourism for the community. It is a downtown that residents take
pride in and visitors want to experience. People are drawn here
by the friendly people, beautiful historic buildings, an attractive
downtown park, clean sidewalks and streets, and a variety of shops with
unique offerings and ample parking. Downtown Brunswick has a
charm that is rooted in its railroad, canal and river heritage. A
Victorian era train depot, the remains of a C&O canal lock, a
scenic riverfront, and a renowned railroad museum are destination
points for residents and visitors. People come from near and far to
experience this special place.
Our vision for downtown is a lively place where events and other
activities are always going on. It is common to see folks stroll
the streets, shop, dine outside, listen to music, or walk down to the
river on a summer night. It is an exciting downtown, where people
feel safe, friends meet, and the community comes together to celebrate
our heritage throughout the year. This improved and revitalized
downtown area has benefited not only merchants; it has improved the
quality of life for everyone who lives, works, or visits here.
Volunteering The Main Street approach is centered on having a pool of
dedicated volunteers who carry out the goals and objectives of the
program. You can give your time in several ways—either by joining one
of our four committees or helping out with projects and special events
from time to time. The volunteer opportunities are only limited by the
time and effort that a member feels comfortable in donating to
Brunswick Main Street. We can always use your help!
