Main_Street_Historic_District_Map.pdf

This is a Main Street Historic District Map for the Town of Manchester, Hartford County, Connecticut, prepared as part of the Downtown Manchester Revitalization Planning Program. The map identifies contributing and non-contributing resources within the National Register Historic District boundary, with photograph view locations marked with arrows. The map was developed by Cunningham Associates Ltd. in September 1995 as a planning tool for the downtown area.

The map serves as a reference document for the related contract opportunity regarding the repurposing of the Mary Cheney Library building. The Town of Manchester is seeking proposals from established organizations or entities to occupy this iconic historic structure located within a visible, accessible public park in Downtown Manchester. The Town Board intends to preserve the building's full exterior while repurposing it as a community asset that will revitalize the Downtown District. The successful proposal will present a use or combination of uses that takes advantage of the character of the location and space, with one qualified entity or team selected based on alignment with the Town's preferred goals and objectives.
