Office of Urban Development

The Office Urban Development serves as the state's leading resource in downtown revitalization. Urban Development promotes downtown revitalization throughout the state using a process based on economic development within the context of historic preservation, a concept developed by the National Trust for Historic Preservation; administers the National Trust's Main Street program in North Carolina and manages the Main Street Solutions Fund program.

The Office of Urban Development operates three programs:

  • N.C. Main Street,
  • Small Town Main Street
  • Main Street Solutions Fund

See the 2011-12 Main Street Annual Report for the Office of Urban Development's latest activities and accomplishments.
