Abstract
  • The city of Roanoke confronted the problems of a decaying downtown by recognizing that a new approach would be required to reverse the flight to the suburbs. Traditional programs had not worked or were stalled by the lack of public enthusiasm. Roanokers had, in the past, believed in downtown. To restore this belief would take more than talk about revitalization and rehabilitation planning. Action had to come from the citizens.
