Uplift Lake View Terrace

The Valley Economic Alliance is committed to equitable development of the San Fernando Valley region. Toward that end, The Alliance has launched the “Valley Main Street” Place-Based Revitalization Program, beginning with a pilot program “Uplift Lake View Terrace”. By convening government, nonprofit, and business leaders, The Alliance is a catalyst for re-envisioning and revitalizing under-invested small business districts in the Valley to increase employment opportunities, promote home ownership, and improve the attractiveness of the area.

The program consists of:

  • Business Assistance for local small businesses
  • Business Attraction to vacant commercial spaces
  • Small Business District improvements
  • Programming and District Promotion to increase visitors to the area

The project will result in a Revitalization Toolkit that details best practices for economic development that can be replicated by business owners and community leaders in Valley Main Streets throughout the region.

This program is made possible with support from Wells Fargo.
