Metrocentre Improvement District
From FranaWiki
The Metrocentre Improvement District No. 1 is a special improvement district comprising 44 blocks of downtown Little Rock, Arkansas. The improvement district is managed by the Little Rock Downtown Partnership.
Porter Briggs of Old Town Properties said of the organization in 1977, "Metrocentre is a great thing, because it's the first thing, in my opinion, that's been done here since World War II for the pedestrian. Everything else has been done for the automobile."
