About the Mainstreet Program in Chagrin Falls

Downtown Chagrin Falls is a non-profit, 501(c)(3), organization whose mission is to maintain a vital community by preserving and enhancing the residential, retail, service, government and institutional foundations of our historically & architecturally significant Village. We are based on a program developed in 1980 by the National Trust for Historic
Preservation to preserve small downtown communities throughout America.

The Downtown Chagrin Falls program is based on the model from the National Trust for Historic Preservation. The Board of Directors consists of an Executive Committee and a general Board of volunteers, representing the residential, business, educational, civic and governmental segments of the Village. The Executive Committee meets monthly to plan the projects and programs of the organization.
