About CRI
Culpeper - Main Street Community
Culpeper Renaissance, Inc. (CRI) is a member of the Virginia Main Street program. The main street program was organized by the National Trust for Historic Preservation to help revitalize the economic vitality of downtown commercial districts using the National Main Street Center's successful Main Street Approach.

The results have been remarkable - new businesses are opening, and investors are putting their money into once vacant buildings; tourists are visiting new shops and restaurants and residents are enjoying renewed community pride. Thousands of jobs have been created and more than $141 million in private money has been invested in Virginia's main Street Approach:

- Design -
Downtown Culpeper
Enhance the visual quality of downtown by addressing all design elements to create an appealing environment. Culpeper's downtown has a wealth of historic buildings and an eclectic array of architectural styles. Davis Street and the Depot has been cleaned up. Deteriorating buildings have been renovated and the Depot has been rehabilitated and serves as Culpeper's Visitor's Center and Conference Facility. Improved signage, hanging baskets, period street lights and seasonal banners make downtown functional and attractive.

- Promotion -
Create and market a positive image based on the unique attributes of our downtown. CRI works to educate the community on why downtown revitalization makes economic sense, to correct misconceptions of downtown safety, and utilizes all forms of media to spread the word about exciting things that happen downtown. CRI strives to ensure that downtown Culpeper is the center of the community for fun events and activities.

- Economic Restructuring -
Ribbon Cutting Ceremony
Strengthen downtown's existing economic assets and find new uses for old buildings. Who shops downtown? Who would benefit from living downtown? What kinds of economic incentives will trigger investment? Questions like these are answered through market research allowing CRI to help existing businesses to become more successful and recruit new businesses to create a thriving commercial district.

- Organization -
Establish consensus and cooperation by building effective partnerships among all downtown stakeholders and the citizens of Culpeper. Successful downtown revitalization requires many groups and a broad base of community support all working together to realize the vision created in our Downtown Master Plan. Join a CRI committee and be part of our efforts to revitalize downtown Culpeper.
