Philipsburg Revitalization Corp

Philipsburg has been a Main Street community since 1999. The Main Street Program is a national comprehensive approach to downtown revitalization. The program is operated in Philipsburg by the Philipsburg Revitalization Corporation. The Main Street Approach looks at downtown revitalization through the eyes of four standing committees: Organization, Design, Economic Restructuring, and Promotion. The Main Street Program is administered nationally by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania by the Pennsylvania Downtown Center. The Philipsburg Revitalization Corporation is a member of both of these organizations. Each member of the Board of Directors of the Philipsburg Revitalization Corporation, and the Main Street Manager have been trained in the Main Street Approach by the Pennsylvania Downtown Center.
The Vision of the Philipsburg Revitalization Corporation is to reinvent Historic Downtown Philipsburg as a family oriented:

Hospitality hub where travelers and locals alike can stop and enjoy a variety of dining options, specialty shopping, and entertainment in a historic small town setting where the people are friendly and make you feel at home.
Employment generator where local residents can find living wage opportunities in professional services, government, healthcare, personal services, and technology industries.
Livable neighborhood that will provide all of the benefits of a hospitality hub, plus meet the day-to-day shopping, service, and housing needs of nearby residents.
