Ames Event Center and The LINC Project Updates

The Ames Regional Economic Alliance, in partnership with Discover Ames, ISG, and Ames Main Street, invites downtown business and building owners to attend one of three public forum sessions on Thursday, February 19, focused on the Ames Event Center and LINC projects, two transformational initiatives with significant implications for Downtown Ames.
These sessions are designed to provide a clear overview of the projects, why they matter to the long-term vitality and economic health of downtown, and how local businesses and property owners can play a role in supporting their success. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions, share perspectives, and better understand how these developments could drive increased visitation, activity, and investment in the downtown district.

Forum times (each one hour):

  • 8:30 a.m.
  • 12:00 p.m.
  • 5:30 p.m.
All sessions will be held in the Laughlin Level at the Ames Regional Economic Alliance office, and while the primary audience is downtown business and building owners, the forums are open to anyone interested in learning more.
Your participation and input are important as these projects continue to move forward. We encourage you to attend a session that works best with your schedule and join the conversation about the future of Downtown Ames.
