Closure of South Race Street

Closure of South Race Street

The Town of Georgetown is contemplating a transformative proposal whose aim is to enrich our community atmosphere while prioritizing the wellbeing of residents. Our vision is to reshape South Race Street between Market and Pine into a pedestrian-friendly mall, offering shaded seating areas, walkways and additional amenities. We envisage a bustling spot where the community can convene, taking part in weekend gatherings, concerts, shows and so much more.

As we embark on this potential reimagining of South Race Street, we understand the importance of community insights in shaping decisions that will have a lasting impact on our town. We encourage you to share your thoughts and ideas about this proposed transformation. Your insight is invaluable in guiding this initiative to reflect the true spirit of the Georgetown community, ensuring it's a change that benefits all residents and enhances our shared spaces.
