Link to June 2 Appleton Post-Crescent article, "Q&A: Appleton Downtown Inc.'s Jennifer Stephany says downtown Appleton is poised to grow".
Excerpt: As the country works its way out of the latest recession, downtown Appleton also seeks new opportunities.
Appleton Downtown Inc., a downtown advocacy group and development organization for downtown Appleton, is seeking increased activity from businesses interested in locating to the central business district.
Jennifer Stephany, ADI executive director, recently met with The Post-Crescent to discuss the state of the downtown and what's in store for the summer. Here's an edited transcript of that conversation:
Retiring Guy was disappointed to find the word 'library' not used in this [edited] conversation.
Although the Appleton Public Library is not located on College Avenue, it can certainly be considered part of the downtown business district.
And its services and programs definitely draw a lot of people into the downtown area.
Take a look at these numbers (from the 2008 Wisconsin Public Library Service Data).
Let's give credit where credit is due!
