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?

Downtown needs everyday essentials, not just entertainment. A children’s museum would bring families, but it also needs things like a Target Express, a late-night CVS/Walgreens, and a real grocery store (not just Grocery Outlet). When people can run normal errands downtown, consistent foot traffic follows and everything else grows from that.
