The designation, reached for meeting standards set by the National Main Street Center, is Main Street America’s top honor and recognizes successful efforts in comprehensive commercial district revitalization. This year marks the sixth year Stockbridge Main Street has received the accreditation.

“It’s an honor to be recognized with this accreditation,” Stockbridge Main Street Manager Kira Harris-Braggs said. “This 2021 accreditation does signify our commitment to preservation-based economic development and community revitalization. 

“Our Stockbridge Main Street Program staff and advisory board remain dedicated to the mission of effectively designing an identifiable downtown historic district that promotes economic vitality, encourages cultural enrichment and nurtures community spirit in the city of Stockbridge,” Harris-Braggs said.
