“Enhancing a vibrant tapestry where the community spirit thrives. Every initiative, event, and interaction

aims to uplift spirits. It is a celebration of togetherness, a testament to the power of a community,

and a source of boundless joy for all who gather under its welcoming embrace.” 

The Roslyn Downtown Association (RDA) is a volunteer Washington Main Street Community, a program of the Washington Department of Archaeology & Historic Preservation. The Main Street Four-Point Approach is a unique preservation-based economic development tool that enables the RDA to enhance the downtown and surrounding areas by leveraging local assets from historical, cultural, and architectural resources to local enterprises and community passion. This process is based on the model of The National Trust Main Street Center, a National Trust for Historic Preservation program. It’s an innovative methodology that combines historic preservation with economic development to restore prosperity and vitality.

Four areas of focus are:

• Economic Development

• Design

• Promotion

• Outreach
