Highlighting significant projects such as the $1.5 million Delmar Station improvements and the $6 million streetscape project, the document outlines substantial investments aimed at enhancing public safety, infrastructure, and urban vibrancy.
It also emphasizes the anticipated consumer spending growth of 16.5% by 2028 and features key developments like the $100 million Subtext Mixed-Use Apartment Building.

Safety and Maintenance
The East Loop CID prioritizes safety and security enhancements as a crucial aspect of our mission. Some of our continued efforts include increased lighting, surveillance cameras, private security patrols, and community outreach. By working to enhance safety and security, we create a more inviting and secure environment for businesses, residents, and visitors alike.
Dedicated to maintaining and enhancing the physical environment of our district, the East Loop CID, assists with the maintenance and upkeep of public spaces, including sidewalks, streets, landscaping, and public amenities. By investing in maintenance and upkeep, we help create a more attractive and well-maintained environment, which can have a positive impact on property values, economic development, and overall quality of life for residents and visitors.
