NPNA’s Pics From 2009

Well, with 2009 coming to a close, the NPNA Board would like to thank all NPNA members and friends for continuing to help improve our downtown neighborhood!  Thanks to you, this past year, the NPNA was involved in many projects and events including the Pine Avenue Streetscape Walking Tour, Park[ing] Day LA, the first-ever Latin American parade, the grand opening of K9 Corner dog park, downtown’s tree planting project, retail visioning, and more.

We look forward to an even more fun and productive year in 2010!  Happy Holidays, and enjoy the 2009 NPNA photos!

December 9: RETAIL & COCKTAILS

Retailing Visioning Public Forum & NPNA AFTER PARTY

The NPNA’s December membership meeting has been canceled because we are encouraging all NPNA members to attend the first public forum to kick-off the Retail Visioning strategy process for Downtown Long Beach. This effort will finally give residents a hands-on role in shaping the retail vision/strategies for our neighborhood.  The goal of the project is to have a community-driven vision for the Downtown retail marketplace and a set of objectives/strategies tied to achieving the vision. The discussion goes beyond retail recruitment and addresses additional factors that need to be in place to support a retail plan.  To view a complete Retail Visioning Calendar, click here.

If you’re suffering from NPNA withdrawal, not to worry because to jump start the holidays the NPNA will be hosting an NPNA after party immediately following the Retail Visioning public forum!
