Launch of New HPMS New Logo
To Cap Our 10 Year Anniversary

Sneak
preview of the new logo for HPMS Main Streets. Click
picture to visit our website and give us your feedback on our new logo.
As
we celebrate our 10 year anniversary in 2005, we have many
accomplishments to be proud of and many new exciting initiatives we are
looking forward to bringing to Hyde Park to benefit our Small Town In
The City. One way we’ve decided to mark our anniversary is to kick off
a new logo to lead the way for our next 10 years. Professionally
developed by Icon Associates and Hyde Park Main Streets, the new logo
is intended to be a visual image of our motto, A Small Town In The
City, which we feels captures the essence of Hyde Park, a unique
neighborhood with a small town feel combined with the advantage of
being part of a world class city.
We
invite you to check out the final version of the new logo on our web
page and send us your comments; your feedback is always appreciated!

Boston Main Streets
Foundation Board Meeting Here

Click
logo to find out more about the Boston Main Street Foundation.
Hyde
Park Main Streets was pleased to host the second meeting of the Boston
Main Streets Foundation Board here in December. I am also honored to be
serving on the Board, chosen by my peers, as the citywide
representative of the Main Street Program Directors.
Our
first meeting was held with Mayor Thomas M. Menino at the Parkman House
downtown and really set the tone for a positive and enthusiastic start.
We are developing our own Foundation for the long term sustainability
and support of our neighborhood Programs. In fact one of the proposals
generated at this meeting was to have the Board hold meetings in the
different districts to see first hand the excellent work being done by
individual programs and to foster the connection between the Foundation
and the neighborhoods. Foundation Board members include leaders from
the corporate community representing Bank of America, Citizens
Financial Group, Foley Hoag, John Hancock Financial Services, Samuels
& Associates together with Karl Seidman, Lecturer at M.I.T. Dept.
of Urban Studies and Planning who some of you may remember was our
research partner in the Pew Partnership study of Hyde Park, and
reflecting the continued commitment and cornerstone of Main Streets,
there is the City of Boston, with Charlotte Golar Ritchie, Chief and
Director Dept. of Neighborhood Development and Lisa Signori, Collector/Treasurer
both also serving on the Board.

Hyde Park, West Roxbury &
Roslindale Main Streets Come Together to Create a Joint 3-Neighborhood
Business Directory

Shopping
on Main Streets 2005 Membership Directory & Coupon Book (Click
photo for Boston Main Street Information)
Shopping
locally is a message all neighborhood Main Street Programs love to send
because it means supporting your community and local businesses at the
same time. With the advent of our web site we’ve been able to create an
online Business Directory that we can update monthly and hopefully
reach more people using this technology. Yet there is still something
very valuable about a print Directory, one that you keep in the drawer
and is an easy reference guide and tool to reach local businesses. By
partnering with our sister Programs in West Roxbury and Roslindale we
have the opportunity to create a 3 neighborhood Directory that would
list all the businesses in our combined area with a special emphasis
and promotion of Main Street Business Members.
Similar
to our web Directory, we will have a free basic listing of all district
businesses in order to provide a comprehensive resource for consumers,
but will specially highlight and provide additional information about
our Main Street Business Members. HPMS market research shows that our
business competitors are not other neighborhoods, but malls. By
joining together Main Streets can create and deliver a Directory that
will help you find what you need in a neighborhood near you.
