Vote for Santa Monica’s Main Street in National Competition:

Main Street

Main Street is part of an national competition that honors the importance of main streets in our communities.

Main Streets are really the heartbeat of America’s cities and towns, organizers said. They play an important part in the long-term success of communities and really help build a sense of place. When Main Streets are strong, so are the communities that surround them.

The goal of the America’s Main Streets contest is to help promote the importance and strong economic benefits of these Main Streets and the small businesses that help them thrive. Please help us by nominating and telling us about a deserving Main Street. The winning Main Street will receive $25,000 in cash and related prizes to help revitalize that Main Street.

There are many deserving local organizations that are working to help improve Main Streets and many of those are affiliated with Main Street America™. Main Street America is a program of the nonprofit National Main Street Center, a subsidiary of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. If you are looking for a Main Street to nominate near you, please click here to visit their website and then look in the Main Street Programs map at the bottom of the page.

On Sunday, July 10, at 1:54 a.m. officers of the Santa Monica Police Department were called out to the 2400 block of the Santa Monica Beach in order to investigate a report of possible domestic violence. While the officers were heading towards the location they were informed by dispatch that the victim had claimed that his boyfriend had struck him in the chest and face about 30 minutes prior to his summoning of police assistance. The officers were then updated with the couple’s new location which was said to have been at the intersection of Main Street and Strand Street.
