Downtown Edmond encompasses a thirty-four-block area in the heart of Edmond. Over the last five years, the majority of the city’s commercial growth has been focused on this area, creating a vibrant and dynamic place. During this time, new private investment has totaled over one hundred thirty-five million dollars. New residential projects will add upwards of five hundred residents over the next several years. These projects include:
These projects will complement the Railyard and the Ice House projects that have opened in the core area. Restaurants, coffee shops, bakeries, and apparel stores have created a distinctive retail mix downtown.
Events of all kinds are happening on a regular basis. The Cycle 66 bike race, Heard on Hurd street festival and VIBES, a visual and performance art event hosted on the streets of downtown by local businesses are just a few of the activities that have solidified the popularity of Edmond’s downtown area. Long-time events like LibertyFest, the annual Arts Festival, and the Edmond Farmers Market continue to bring out people of all ages.
With all of this activity and enthusiasm on an upward trajectory downtown, the city is exploring options to activate areas that can add to this dynamic.
