Paducah Renaissance Alliance

In 2008, the City Commission created the Paducah Renaissance Alliance (PRA).  Before PRA, Paducah Mainstreet worked to market and attract businesses to the downtown area and the LowerTown Artist Relocation Coordinator and the City's Planning Department worked to attract artists to the nearby LowerTown artist district.  With the creation of the Paducah Renaissance Alliance, the two groups are working side-by-side in the office at 605 Broadway.  This partnership allows the two groups to speak with one voice thus providing an increasing number of economic development and marketing opportunities in the downtown and LowerTown areas.

Bill McLeod Report:  Observations and Recommendations
