The City of Bridgeport is committed to preserving our downtown business district by using our past to promote our future. Our Main Street efforts are based on the premise that our historic buildings, tall tales, and philosophies passed from generation to generation give our community its sense of place and help us maintain our unique identity.

In 2007 Bridgeport was named a Texas Main Street City by the Texas Historical Commission and Texas Main Street Association. Since then, Bridgeport Main Street has been a Texas Main Street City and has monthly and annual criteria to keep up this distinguished recognition. In addition, Bridgeport Main Street has been recognized as a Nationally-Accredited Main Street Program since 2016. 

The Bridgeport Main Street Board helps guide revitalization efforts by using the Texas Historical Society’s Main Street four points approach, including design, organization, promotion, economic vitality, and cultural arts.

Mission: Bridgeport Main Street Program, through dedicated volunteers and collaboration with organizations, will promote historic preservation, revitalization, and economic vitality in our historic downtown area. Through active partnerships and efforts, we will create a unique destination filled with history, culture, and charm.
