From Commercial corridor to modern main street

Hyde Parkers want a downtown where they can eat and shop, work and relax.  A walkable downtown will make Hyde Park a vibrant Hudson Valley destination and an even better place to live.  It will also boost the tax base and create good jobs. 
​
The Hyde Park Town Board is improving the town center through cooperation and creativity.  While the specific use of each property is the property owner's choice, the town is using the tools available in the public sector to encourage investment -- improving infrastructure, creating attractive streetscapes, maintaining a predictable review process and keeping taxes under control.
