Kennedy Smith served as di-
rector of the National Trust for
Historic Preservation’s National
Main Street Center for 13 years,
from 1991-2004. She has re-
ceived many accolades for her
accomplishments during those
years. She writes in an article for
the Main Street News that Main
Street revitalization represents
Several important things:
• “Main Streets are the places
where true innovation occurs.”’
|he offers that chain-store-
packed shopping centers are mo-
notonous and predictable...the
same stores present the same
merchandise in the same format.
Independent businesses, on the
other hand, grow new ideas and
mirror local character. Think how
fortunate Comanche is to have
Ray and his Frontier Boot
Shop...Christi and Sherry and
their wonderful Flavors...
Kendall and his crew at
Harry’s...Goodson’s Insurance
and Starbeau’s all on the south
side of the square. These are not
“cookie cutter” businesses, but
rather innovative business people
who bring character and creativ-
ity to our community.
“Main Street revitalization is
the ultimate from of recycling.”
In an age where everyone is re-
cycling newspapers, glass and
aluminum cans, “Why not recycle
buildings?” It really does not ben-
efit a community to let main street
buildings stand vacant while con-
structing new “boxes” out on
some strip of land away from the
central business district.
Ms. Smith continues, “Sure,
Main Streets have some rough
spots—but on Main Street you
can see the evolution of an entire
community unfold before your
