Main Street Bowling Green has returned to its roots and changed its name to Downtown Bowling Green.
Main Street Bowling Green has renewed its focus on serving the needs of the downtown property owners and merchants. The name change symbolizes the rededication and reflects a return to the organization's roots.

With its focus on revitalization and preservation, the state organization's goals were closely aligned with those of the local group, and the relationship was mutually beneficial. But over the years, Main Street Bowling Green evolved differently than Heritage Ohio and other local groups. The structural differences, coupled with an increase in the cost of membership and the difficult economy, led to the conclusion that membership in Heritage Ohio no longer served the needs of downtown Bowling Green.
