From the Desk of the DDA
THANK YOU to our DDA team and Board, and Downtown merchants, businesses, property owners, and residents
for a great 2015/2016 year!
•First Friday Art Walk has been revitalized thanks to Old School Square Cornell Museum of Art, the art galleries
and working artist studios.
•We appreciate the support of community members who have participated in the DDA focus groups and
look forward to sharing our new Strategic Plan.
•Cheers to the successful 1st annual Dine Out Downtown Delray Restaurant Week – thank you to our
restaurants and food/beverage merchants – could not have done these events without you!
•THE SET neighborhood in the DDA district has new LED rope lights on 125 poles from I-95 to Swinton Ave –
Beautiful!
•The redesigned DowntownDelrayBeach.com is “live,” seeing increased traffic, and is a great promotional
vehicle for Downtown merchants and businesses.
See you Downtown!
