Alabama's oldest working courthouse, an Art Deco theater, and the blocks of storefronts around them. Talladega Main Street keeps them occupied.
Discover DowntownTalladega Main Street is an accredited Main Street Alabama program. We put money into facades, people onto sidewalks, and businesses behind doors that were empty.
Public and private dollars since the program began.
Storefronts restored with matching grant support.
Contributed by residents and merchants last year.
Every accredited program works across the same four areas — the four squares in our logo.
Board, volunteers, partnerships, and the funding that sustains the work year to year.
Festivals, Third Fridays, and the marketing that gets people onto the square and into the shops.
Facade grants, storefront guidance, signage, and lighting that respect what's already here.
Helping new businesses land, existing ones grow, and vacant spaces get filled.
Shops stay open till nine, with live music from the courthouse steps.
Makers ring the square, plus a guided walk of the Hallman murals.
Open to any business inside the district. Coffee and introductions.
"We didn't restore the storefront to make it look old. We did it so somebody could open a business behind it."[Name] — Property owner, Court Square West
