NATIONAL MAIN STREET ACCREDITATION
The efforts of the New Albany Main Street Association over the past year has earned it recognition for commercial distric revitalization by meeting standards for performance set by the National Trust for Historic Preservation’s National Main Street Center. New Albany Main Street Association joins 650 other Main Street revitalization programs nationally recognized as 2007 Accredited National Main Street Programs.

"The National Accreditation means the Main Street program is meeting our national standards of performance for what a Main Street program should be doing," said Doug Loescher, director of the National Trust’s Main Street Center. "The organizations we name each year as National Main Street Programs are those that demonstrated the skills needed to succeed in Main Street revitalization."

The annual accreditation process evaluates commercial district revitalization programs based on criteria ranging from having an active board of directors and paid professional manager to track economic progress and preserving historic Main Street buildings.

"Rebuilding a district’s economic health and maintaining that success requires broadbased community involvement, active support from both the public and private sectors, and sound management," said Loescher. "Having a solid organization at the foundation of that revitalization effort is so important to long term success."

The organization’s performance was evaluated Mississippi Main Street Association, which is the coordinating organization for Main Street programs in Mississippi.
