Sapulpa Main Street

Sapulpa became an official Main Street community in 1990. A visionary group of individuals recognized that Sapulpa had a rich downtown that was not fully contributing to the economic development of the community. In the past 18 years, $26.5 million in private and public funds were put into downtown brick and mortar projects.

The Main Street program will continue its economic development work to ensure the heart of the city, Sapulpa’s distinguishing characteristic, remains vital. The current focus is on continued recruitment of diversified, specialized retail, development of upper floor spaces into housing and offices, and image promotion. Sapulpa Main Street recently sponsored Upstairs-Downtown, a tour of historic buildings that focused on renovated space and the possibilities of adapting unused space into a business or residential property. This is all accomplished through a national four-point approach focused on quality and long-term improvement. The four points are: Design, Economic Restructuring, Promotion and Organization.
