About Us
Established in 2008, the Carson City Downtown Consortium is a Carson City Redevleopment Authority led initiative representative of hundreds of business and property owners in the downtown central businesses district and thousands of Carson City citizens who care about downtown, and know it affects the whole town. The boundaries of the redevelopment area are basically north and south from West John Street to the intersection of Stewart Street and US 396 and east and west from about one block west of Mountain Street east to Valley Road.
Involvement
As a part of the process small, multi-disciplinary, issue-oriented research teams will probe, analyze and discuss matters pertinent to the evolution of many aspects of Downtown Carson City, not only within its boundaries but also as it relates to the entire community. Goals include helping guide downtown growth in the direction the community has said it wants, instead of passively accepting growth as it comes. Become involved!

Did you know?
Potentially …. for example ….
• If your business is in need of marketing or promotions, you could benefit from marketing and advertising that promotes all business downtown.
• Extensive and helpful walking, biking, riding and driving connections from downtown to our community treasures, within and outside of downtown, could become a reality. For example, wouldn’t it be great to throw your bike on a public bus (J.A.C) and have it take you, say, out to the V&T route or up to the College and then return you to a downtown stop, so you could grab a terrific meal after a great recreational outing?
• Carson City’s authentic story could be told and celebrated from our downtown museums and our public library within an Arts and Culture “Roundhouse District.”
• Ways to add security, safety and beautification (above what the City can provide) may be found to add services and value to your downtown business or your downtown visit.
• Laser pointed efforts to improve economic well-being and economic growth could be directed to your downtown business.
• The value of downtown property will increase as CCDC efforts increase the value of the market area.
