Revitalizing Main Street: Boulder City's Historic Preservation and Community Development.

Welcome to "The Best Dam Podcast," In today's episode, our host, Jill Lagan, dives into the heart of Boulder City's historic downtown with the Main Street Boulder City program, now in its exciting second year. This initiative, part of the national Main Street America network, emphasizes historic preservation, community development, and economic growth.

Joining us are three remarkable consultants driving this program forward: Michelle Caven, Amber Cunningham, and Danielle Stemmer. Michelle, a 20-year resident of Boulder City, brings a wealth of historical knowledge and passion for the city's legacy. Amber, with her rich background in economics and public administration, is enhancing our community's economic landscape, organizing fantastic events like the New Year's Eve block party. Danielle, whose varied career spans sociology, healthcare, and event management, focuses on understanding community needs and enhancing quality of life.
