    4.0 out of 5 stars Informative

    This book jumps right in regarding how to revitalize any downtown area. It provides 10 transformative and proven strategies to assist in the process. It is very informative and well organized. The recommended reading age is listed as ages 16-18 but this age group is not appropriate for this topic. If you live in a downtown area that is looking to revitalize and you have connections that can pull resources together to make change happen, this is a great resource to assist in accomplishing your goals.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Examples are very basic
    Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2026
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    Not a bad read if your small town is totally outdated/unused. My small town implemented the Main Street program in 2013. We’ve had a lot of growth, but things have plateaued. I was really looking for the next steps beyond starting.

    That being said, if your small town is in the early stages - this might be of some help. But you can find all of the information by visiting MainStreet.org

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great Resource for Small Towns Navigating Change
    Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2025
    Format: Kindle
    The reason I decided to read this book was because I relocated to a small mountain town about a year and a half ago. The town has under 2,000 residents, and as a newer resident I can see that change has been, and may continue to be, difficult for years to come.

    With that said, the 10 strategies in the book are extremely valuable and I think do a really nice job of weaving in economic progress while preserving and highlighting a community’s history and attributes. For concerned and more progressive residents like myself, this book serves as an outstanding tool to engage in productive discussion about what is possible and how multiple goals can be achieved simultaneously.

    I'll be sharing this book with a few individuals in my community :) and I would encourage the author to flesh out even more ideas and strategies in future editions.

    4.0 out of 5 stars An accademic look at an important topic
    Reviewed in Canada on March 8, 2026
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    As a former land-use planner, I was interested to see what the author had to say about the subject of main street revitalization. All the information is accurate however this book is most suited to government officials or other policy makers not individuals who want to help their communities. The tone is academic and the author uses terms that may be confusing to those who have not previously heard them (e.g. Public-private partnership).

    5.0 out of 5 stars A great title to share to your local groups
    Reviewed in Australia on September 19, 2025

    This book summarizes many strategies and gives examples of successful revitalizations. As I live near a local village that is successfully in the process of transforming itself, I see many of the strategies mentioned here unfolding. I would like to see more of the suggestions in this little book adopted and a more coordinated approach taken. Recommended reading for anyone with an interest in seeing their small town progress and become more vibrant. I have shared this title with our local chat groups for follow-up with interested parties.
