Abstract
Description
The Delmarva Consortium's Downtown Revitalization Demonstration Project
believes that downtown revitalization can provide a new source of economic
growth to communities while they preserve their unique architectural and
historical features and small town character. Middletown, Delaware and
three other Peninsula communities -- Smyrna, Delaware, Snow Hill, Maryland,
and Onancock, Virginia -- were competitively selected by the Consortium.
Key to their selection was evidence of a joint commitment by the local
government and private sector to reverse the decline of their downtowns.
