Main Street Chillicothe

At Main Street Chillicothe, we work to preserve the heritage of our community while promoting economic growth downtown. Our Team, Board of Directors, and Committees are dedicated to making downtown Chillicothe a bustling hub of activity now, and for years to come.

We focus on historic preservation, strengthening our downtown businesses, community education and promoting downtown through communications and marketing. We provide one-on-one support to address the needs of small businesses, including educating property owners. We have been highly successful in bringing real and tangible benefits to our downtown area.

Main Street Chillicothe was formed in 2000 by the Chillicothe Development Corporation, when it saw the need to bring commerce and tourism back to the heart of the community. We are currently managed by the Livingston County Community Development Corporation (LCCDC) DBA Main Street Chillicothe, an arm of the group.

Our offices are located on the second floor of the Chillicothe Commerce Center. This space facilitates collaboration with the many community partners who share our building – the Chillicothe Area Chamber of Commerce, the Chillicothe Area Arts Council and the Greater Chillicothe Visitors Region. By using the upper level of a historic building, our offices also serves as a model for downtown development.
