How long will Main Street last?
The Main Street Program is an ongoing program developed by the National Trust for Historic Preservation to encourage economic development within the context of historic preservation for communities. As long as funding is adequate and volunteer interest is high the Main Street Program of action will continue. The City of Ponca City has made a substantial contribution of funding and support for the program showing their belief that Main Street is one answer to the vitality of the downtown area. In the future when the program grows the Ponca City Main Street can shift gears and expand to consider related projects and other areas for development.
