Have you heard? Thibodaux Main Street, Inc is celebrating its 20th anniversary! In 20 years, they have managed to continuously revitalize Downtown Thibodaux.

 

The organization recently released the 2021 Annual Report. 2021 threw some curveballs not only with the ongoing pandemic but also Hurricane Ida. “Here we are, another January & another year in the rearview mirror,” Executive Director Danielle Stein wrote,” as we reflect on 2021, the lingering impacts of the COVID pandemic & the devastation of Hurricane Ida will be top of mind. I believe that on the other side of each challenge, we endure, we’re rewarded with a new “tool” to assist us with future obstacles.”


 

The state of Main Street report showed that $25,000 public dollars were invested in downtown improvements, the 2020 census population of Thibodaux was 15,948, $10,000 grant dollars was awarded for historic building restoration, there are over 515 public parking spaces in the Main Street district, three businesses temporarily relocated downtown due to Hurricane Ida, and there were two new businesses to open downtown. In 2020 they were quite in the media spotlight by being featured in the Chamber Insight, our Bayou Business Monthly magazine, The Times of Houma/Thibodaux, USA Today 10 Best, and Budget Travel.

 

Something to boast about is Thibodaux being voted the #2 Best Small Town Food Scene in the country by USA Today 10 Best and Thibodaux was also named one of the Coolest Small Towns of 2022 by Budget Travel.
