Fully understanding what Durant Main Street is and can do for them, citizens of Durant have rallied around the program yielding impressive results.  Downtown Durant is now recognized as a cohesive district, where each business and building complements its neighbor while capitalizing on its own uniqueness.  Downtown is the focal point for an ever-growing revitalization effort.   As a result of Main Street, historic preservation has become the cornerstone for renewed pride in the community.

        Downtown's attractive and inviting streetscape serves as a perfect backdrop for this socially functional district.   Likewise, our revitalized merchant base provides the mix of goods and services that satisfies the market - including locals and out-of-town visitors and tourists - turning the road to Texas into a two-way street.

        Building in the strong partnerships among Main Street, the Chamber of Commerce, City and County government and other private and public organizations, hundreds of volunteers have made downtown Durant a showplace and center of the community.  Based on a commonly held vision, these volunteers continue to raise the stake for an ideal downtown district.
