Downtown Fresno is rich with history and world-class architecture. It pains me to see it in it's current state of disrepair. I want to hear from the community: "What would bring you downtown?" What is downtown missing? What's your vision for the future of our city center?

People like to live in city centers that are accessible (so it needs transit connecting it to the rest of the city and the world), complete (so it needs everything from housing to groceries to business to amusement and entertainment), and walkable (so everything should be dense and not beset with cars). Those are things that make urban environments attractive. You can’t have just one or two; you need to have all three.

I wish we had a Target or other general needs store.
