DOWNTOWN DURANGO: A robust economy has led to a surge of investment in downtown Main Avenue. The sounds of saws and hammers emanate from storefronts from the 1000 block to the 800 block. Retro red brick and historic looking windows are replacing stucco along the street, and developers can't build condos fast enough. Developers are taking the time and expense to make the renovations look good, often with nods to Durango's aesthetic history.

Strong retail sales have helped. For the last 3 years sales tax increases have been steady and robust. Sales tax receipts in the Central Business District were up 4.6 percent last month compared to March 2006.
