We work with the community to keep Ashmont strong, vibrant, and exciting.
Who We Are
The goal of the Boston Main Streets program is to improve the quality of life in Boston’s neighborhoods. Greater Ashmont Main Street (originally called St. Mark’s Area Main Street) was designated as one of Boston’s Main Street Districts in the summer of 1999. Our commercial district includes more than 130 businesses in almost 400,000 square feet of commercial and institutional space, and serves more than 30,000 residents, workers and commuters.
What We Do
Our mission is to cultivate Greater Ashmont as an attractive, thriving, and connected neighborhood through our work as a responsive nonprofit organization. We strive to maintain a welcoming streetscape that encourages foot traffic, promote a diverse business mix that supports a vibrant local economy, and host events that foster relationships and encourage collaboration across our community. We are guided by both data and community feedback to ensure we remain responsive to the needs of our district.
