The opportunity for the Erie Downtown Development Corporation (EDDC), and other community leaders, lies in the momentum that is already increasing to change Erie’s course. Unprecedented collaboration among community leaders along with investment by the private sector, totaling more than $600 million within the last year, demonstrates Erie’s readiness for change. The EDDC is committed to an inclusive growth strategy that generates more opportunities for all: opportunities to live and work in a vibrant downtown, opportunities to start and grown businesses, and opportunities to be a part of our city’s transformation. It is our vision to build an authentic “Erie” experience downtown that reflects the talents, cultures, and values of our community’s most important asset – our people.
