A contingent of residents and businesses in midtown Phoenix are working to organize a Midtown Museum District Neighborhood Association. Proposed boundaries are McDowell to Indian School, 3rd St. to 1st Ave. from McDowell to Thomas, and 3rd St. to 3rd Ave. from Thomas to Indian School.
The group hopes to keep track of public policy issues affecting the neighborhood; hold social events to building a sense of community; partner with local businesses, cultural attractions, and Light Rail; and form a Block Watch to reduce crime and vandalism.
The association is in the formation stage. Interested parties are welcome to help decide how the group can work together for the benefit of everyone who lives and works in the neighborhood.
The first organizational meeting will be held:
- Date: Monday, August 11, 2008
- Time: 7 p.m. to 8 p.m.
- Place: Central United Methodist Church, 1875 N. Central Ave.
- Parking: Available in the Palm Lane parking lot; follow signs to church’s East entrance
- For more information, call 602-758-3129 or send an e-mail.
