BRIDGEPORT Main Street MESSENGER PHOTO BY JOE DUTY COAL MINER’S DAY DOG PARADE The Bridgeport Main Street program has enjoyed many highs over the last few years. In 2007, Bridgeport was named a Texas Main Street City and in October the city was one of 59 Texas cities added to the National Main Street City list. “Main Street fosters the idea that the preservation of our historic buildings is important, but that has to go hand in hand with viable, successful retail,” said Angie Tyson, Bridgeport Main Street manager. “You can buy a toaster, you can get your boots fixed, you can get your hair cut and you can get glass etching downtown.” Downtown Bridgeport storefronts feature florists displays, clothing stores, cafes and gift shops. Two gyms are also located in downtown. “There’s more here than people know,” Tyson said. “The merchants have to provide the goods and services that the community needs. I’ve seen downtown merchants trying to do that.” Along with the shopping available, downtown Bridgeport is the stage for various events throughout the year. Events include: • Oct. 3 – Coal Miners Heritage Festival • Oct. 31 – Trick or Treat and costume parade on Halsell • November — Art Walk • Dec. 12 – Home for the Holidays: Pictures with Santa, merchant open houses, lighted Christmas parade • Feb. 14 – Hearts and Flowers on Halsell Valentines dinner • Monthly Bridgeport Box Office movies in downtown – during the cold months movies are shown at the Bridgeport Stage and on Halsell Street during the warm months. !
