Mission Statement
The mission of Main Street West Memphis is to be the primary catalyst for improving the downtown business area by bringing together all elements of the community and further enhancing the overall quality of life.
Vision Statement
In the year 2020, West Memphis is an attractive, dynamic, busy, prosperous and exciting place to be for all age groups from a wide, regional area.
The population has grown to 50,000. Downtown businesses are meeting the demand of the expanded population, with a good business mix of services and specialty shops.
Traffic flow and parking is improved by restricting heavy truck traffic to the truck route and interstate systems.
The majority of the businesses are owner occupied.
The overall appearance is clean, well kept and inviting with well-lit sidewalks and storefronts, attractive landscaping and colorful banners.
Downtown is THE place to be.
