About Us The mission of the Main Street Elberton Program is to enhance the quality of life by strengthening the downtown as the center of the community through concentrated efforts in organization, promotion, design and economic development. Main Street Elberton strives to become financially self-sustaining, to increase awareness of Downtown Elberton, provide a good mix of private and public properties and continue to make a good looking square into a showplace. The Elberton DDA is also part of the Georgia Main Street Program which is based on a comprehensive strategy of work, tailored to local needs and opportunities in four broad areas, called the Main Street Four Point Approach: 1. Design: Enhancing the physical appearance of the commercial district by rehabilitating historic buildings, encouraging supportive new construction, developing sensitive design management systems, and long-term planning. 2. Organization: building consensus and cooperation among the many groups and individuals who have a role in the revitalization process. 3. Promotion: Marketing the traditional commercial district's assets to customers, potential investors, new businesses, local citizens and visitors. 4. Economic Restructuring: Strengthening the district's existing economic base while finding ways to expand it to meet new opportunities -- and challenges from outlying development. The Elberton Downtown Development Authority Board of Directors is a seven member volunteer board appointed by the City of Elberton that governs the Downtown Development Authority.
