A downtown speaks for the health of the local economy.
A prosperous downtown – or the lack of one – can affect the community’s ability to attract and retain residents, investments, jobs, and tourists. By stimulating local business development, reinvesting in historic buildings, and embracing Wadsworth’s unique characteristics, we can make Downtown Wadsworth the community center where residents and visitors alike come to shop, dine, gather, work, live, and play.
Main Street Wadsworth is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to the economic revitalization and historic preservation of Downtown Wadsworth. As Ohio’s 22nd Main Street Community, we are laser-focused on making the downtown an economic engine by enhancing the district, improving the image of downtown, and promoting our small businesses and unique architecture.
Join our team of volunteers, small business owners, and community leaders. We are Wadsworth residents who give our time, energy, and resources to help organize unique events and improve the district’s image through beautification and preservation projects. Every small success leads to bigger gains for the City of Wadsworth and a greater quality of life for everyone who lives in Wadsworth.
