Main Street Texarkana Tops List
Texarkana, USA — Main Street Texarkana is proud to announce that it was one of only two Main Street programs in the state of Arkansas to record an increase in visitors to its downtown district in 2025. At a time when many communities saw declines, Texarkana’s historic downtown continued to draw visitors, reflecting the momentum of ongoing revitalization efforts.

“This milestone shows what’s possible when a community believes in its downtown,” said Main Street
Texarkana executive director, Ina McDowell. “We’re thrilled to see more people exploring and supporting
Texarkana’s historic heart.”

To help keep this momentum strong, Main Street Texarkana invites the community to become Main Street
Texarkana Investors. Annual contributions directly fuel preservation projects and economic development
initiatives that keep downtown thriving. To explore investorship levels or to make your contribution today,

Main Street Texarkana is a non-profit organization dedicated to economic development through historic
preservation, re-purposing, education, and community involvement. For more information, contact Main
