Harrodsburg First in 1986 as a division of the
Harrodsburg-Mercer County Landmark Association, Inc.,

administer a comprehensive downtown revitalization program
under the National Main Street Program’s philosophy and
approach. Since Harrodsburg’s selection as a State Main
Street Town through the Kentucky Heritage
Council in 1988, positive and consistent steps
have been taken to encourage this revitalization

Harrodsburg
First’s mission states that a healthy
downtown is vital for an entire community’s
economic well being. A healthy downtown
environment shows a pride in the entire
community while a declining downtown gives
the impression of a community without
vitality. Harrodsburg First believes that
our heritage and identity in downtown is the
historic, social, cultural and political
core of our community. |
Harrodsburg has local lending
institutions, a post office, library, multiple merchants and
service agencies, city and county government offices all
within walking distance of Main Street which creates a
wonderful and diverse gathering place for all residents.
