Welcome to the official site of the Virginia Downtown Development Association. Downtown is the anchor of every city and community and a link to our heritage and history. The Mission of the Virginia Downtown Development Association is to bring attention to the significance of historic downtowns to Virginia's economic vitality and to enhance the effectiveness of organizations, individuals, and communities to foster vibrant economic development.
VDDA advocates, supports, and promotes leadership in downtown revitalization throughout the Commonwealth. Participants include economic development professionals, appointed and elected city and county officials, downtown managers, planners, architects, business owners, tourism officials, chambers of commerce and others who are stakeholders in maintaining Virginia's vibrant historic downtowns. VDDA has successfully helped Virginia localities for over twenty-five years and offers many services to communities throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia to advance the revitalization of our historic downtowns.
