Destination Downtown
Vacant Spaces To Vibrant Places:
Real Estate Showcase & Community Visioning Walking Tour • Two Day Event
In Downtown Natchez, as in other communities nationwide, property owners may want to redevelop, but they may not know how to evaluate the best end-use of their property in the context of their market. Destination Downtown, DNA’s newest annual event, will aid owners, developers, investors, and potential business owners in that process. Ultimately, DNA will assist owners and developers in constructing pro forma statements to help them make sound development decisions.
