Downtown Great Falls Market Analysis & Strategy Released

Downtown Great Falls has seen significant investment in recent years, cultivating a thriving retail and entertainment scene supported by year-round programming highlighting local artists, craftspeople, and businesses. As Downtown Great Falls continues attracting investment and development, it is not immune from the national trends that are impacting downtown businesses, including increases in remote work and high interest rates and construction costs. Recognizing these challenges, the Great Falls Development Alliance and the Downtown Development Partnership engaged Leland Consulting Group to provide a detailed, data-driven market analysis to quantify underlying market conditions and to identify feasible strategies to keep the momentum of investment going.
We are pleased to release the Downtown Great Falls Market Analysis and Downtown Great Falls Economic Vitality Transformation Strategy.
Thank you to the businesses, property owners, developers and partners who helped with the analysis. A big thank you to the City of Great Falls, Montana Department of Commerce Main Street Program, NeighborWorks Great Falls, and GFDA investors for funding this project.
