Working toward a shared vision.
Imagine Downtown Chelan is a collaborative process led by the Historic Downtown Chelan Association and the City of Chelan that involves engaging the community and gathering input from diverse stakeholders. We seek to understand the needs, desires, and aspirations of the people who will use and inhabit the space.
Downtown Chelan is the economic engine and social heart of the Chelan community.
Chelan’s charming historic core is rooted in more than one hundred years of tradition and hosts a vibrant mix of retail, restaurants, and professional services. Our downtown is grounded in history and tradition with a future driven by a community vision. Imagine Downtown Chelan!
Revitalizing downtown Chelan will help preserve...
…our community’s identity, heritage, and sense of place while also making the downtown more attractive, user-friendly, and accessible.This includes streetscape enhancements like improving the sidewalks, crosswalks, and lighting; and will address the need for better connections from the downtown businesses with amenities like parking, public restrooms, and parks.
