CLEVER DOESN'T HAVE TO BE EXPENSIVE

If your downtown has an empty spot where a tree or light post use to stand or some other small piece of vacant landscape; something like this could be fun.   Not every undertaking has to be earth shattering.  The goal is to generate some "buzz".  Get the talk started and potential businesses will be more likely to look at your downtown.  As I've said several times before, make the local media aware of these little curiosities.  They may be more interested than you might think.
