DOWNTOWN DOUGLAS COMMERCIAL DISTRICT
   
Our Downtown Commercial District is about fifty-five acres in size and includes more than 236,000 square feet of development. Route 16 which is also Main Street in this district bi-sects the area and provides for a steady flow of east-west traffic.
   
A 2002 Economic Analysis of our downtown commercial district by RKG Associates identified over 114 businesses operating in Douglas that employed more than 800 persons.
   
The study also identified approximately $57.5 million in consumer spending demand from Douglas residents for a variety of retail offerings.
   
A major upgrade of water service is in the final stages of completion and several traffic and aesthetic improvements to the downtown district are also scheduled for the near future.
