Downtown Development
Eatonton Main Street is recognized by the state of Georgia as a Classic Main Street Community and is certified as a National Main Street Community by the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
Our role is to act as a hub for relevant news and resources, knowledge and good practice; to raise the profile and support the economic well-being of businesses in Downtown Eatonton; and to support our community through our festivals, movie nights and partnerships.
The Eatonton Main Street staff is here to assist you and act as your business concierge, within the downtown district, whether you are an existing business owner or are just starting out.
Why start or relocate a business in Downtown Eatonton?
In Eatonton this is where your story begins. Our merchants range from those just open, to businesses that have been here for over one hundred years and are at the heart of our community foundation.
The beating heart of our community is right here in Downtown Eatonton. Our local banks provide the financing that is a key to the economic vitality of the downtown.
Our community is the true support of our signature events. Being our guests, sponsors, vendors or volunteers, at the The Arts Festival, Movies In The Park and the holiday events, none of these events would be possible without their community engagement and support.
Eatonton Main Street is a department of the City of Eatonton. The City's Public Works Department assists Eatonton Main Street with providing logistical support at events, and City Council members engage with the Main Street Manager through the delivery of the monthly report.
Eatonton Main Street looks forward in welcoming you to our downtown and helping you with writing your first chapter, whether it be your first book, or one of many volumes.
