North alley improvements behind 101 Main St - 133 W Main St, will impact thirteen buildings having rear entrances from Main, Miller, and Church Streets; one of which serves as the main entrance to the Sherman Food Pantry. The plan is to allow for service access and delivery, while eliminating unrelated traffic through the alley. The design includes lights,
landscaping with a courtyard for seating, and designated parking for tenants and guests.
The residents and business owners desire an aesthetically pleasing, safe, and well-lit area with outdoor accommodations in the downtown corridor.
