    Are you thinking that this "heritage area" designation would help bring us more participants in community events like the Riverside Art Fair? While I enjoy perusing the internet for cultural events around Chicagoland (which is how I find out about local fairs, concerts, etc); I know many people research their weekend activities through these types of websites and organizations.

    Absolutely. But I also think that if we by these funds developed our potential for heritage tourism it would help revitalize our Central Business District. Visitors eat, drink and shop. And we could perhaps find other ways of monetizing it, as the saying goes.
