Main Street Medford was accepted as an associate tier member of the Main Street New Jersey Program in the fall of 2014. Main Street New Jersey is a state program operating out of the Department of Community Affairs, and is a comprehensive revitalization program that promotes the historic and economic redevelopment of traditional business districts in New Jersey. The Main Street New Jersey Program was established in 1989 to encourage and support the revitalization of downtowns throughout the state. Every two years the DCA accepts applications and designates selected communities to join the program. These communities receive valuable technical support and training to assist in restoring their main streets as centers of community and economic activity.
The results in New Jersey have been impressive. MSNJ Communities have brought significant numbers of new businesses and jobs to their respective downtowns. In addition, facade improvements and building rehabilitation projects have upgraded the image of Main Street. MSNJ builds on the Main Street approach that was developed by the National Trust’s National Main Street Center in 1980 to assist downtown revitalization efforts nationwide.
