New Category Added to Business Directory
We've recently expanded our digital Business Directory to include a new "Services" category. From creative services like graphic design and printing to salon services like hair and nails, consumers can find a wide variety of businesses that offer the services they're looking for. Businesses located within the Littleton DDA boundaries in these categories – Shopping, Food & Beverage, Health & Wellness, and Services – should add or review their listing HERE. The form can be used to update your business description, add/change photos, and identify additional sub-categories including LGBTQ+ Friendly, Local, Minority-Owned, Patios, and Women-Owned.
 

Project Downtown: Last Chance to Provide Input
The City of Littleton's Project Downtown team is excited to show you three draft concepts for the future of Downtown Littleton, focused primarily on Main Street, Alamo Avenue, and Prince Street. This is the final opportunity for the community to provide feedback about the concepts presented. Please share today's meeting and the survey with ANY AND ALL of your tenants, employees, friends, relatives, business partners, and other property owners. Now is the time to ensure that the Littleton DDA constituents voice their opinions, especially property and business owners. We encourage you to attend this meeting and/or complete the survey so you have first-hand experience of how community engagement has been conducted for this project, in addition to hearing what other community members are saying about the vision for downtown over the next 15-20 years.

In addition to the Project Downtown meeting, community members are encouraged to take the Community Survey.

New Street Pole Banners Installed
Image item
Littleton DDA's Plan of Development is made up of five primary themes of improvement including Beautiful and Welcoming. This means working towards creating an experience that is beautiful and welcoming for all that come downtown and creating a place that people want to come back to. Our most recent efforts included the installation of new street pole banners along Littleton Blvd/Main and Alamo. These type of enhancements to the gateways into the district let people know they are entering a unique, beautiful, and 
well-maintained place.
 

Littleton's Economic Development Strategy

  • The historic downtown with cultural amenities and small businesses create a highly desirable living environment
  • Downtown Littleton, Mid Mod Mile, and the abundance of cultural and recreational opportunities throughout Littleton are key assets central to local economic development efforts and remain critical to the city’s future economic success
