A charming small town nestled within the larger Detroit metropolitan area, Plymouth’s main feature is our central square, Kellogg Park. The park is the focal point for all the area’s civic, social, and commercial activities that draw more than one million people annually. These activities include:
· Art in the Park
· Music in the Park
· Children's Concerts
· Downtown Fridays
· Music-In-The-Air Summer Concerts
· Farmers Market
· Fall Festival
· Internationally known Ice Sculpture Spectacular
· Holiday parades
The downtown retailers and services clustered around the square, provide a wide variety for customers drawn to these events.
The Plymouth Downtown Development Authority (DDA) has committed itself to making the businesses stronger and more profitable.
Specific business assistance includes:
· One-on-one business counseling
· Marketing and Promotions
· Business assistance seminars
· Public relations
We have continued to be the center of development for Western Wayne County. During the past 10 years we have upgraded the visual appeal of the downtown by constructing a 2.8 million-dollar streetscape. This has contributed to the continuing low vacancy rate (1%) and the increase in commercial development. The DDA is also pursuing an aggressive parking plan to maximize the use of existing parking spaces and expand parking inventory. During the next three years, the downtown is expecting over twenty million dollars in new commercial development. These projects will only help to continue to keep downtown Plymouth competitive.
Come by and see our charming downtown. Have lunch at one of our restaurants. Walk our tree-lined streets. Explore how your dreams fit our reality. We think you will fall in love with our small town charm as much as our customers have.
Add to these amenities and commitment of over 200 business and property owners and community leaders and you can see why Downtown Plymouth "is the place to be."
