Unlock the Block

What is Unlock the Block?

Unlock the Block is an initiative that serves as a catalyst to reduce vacancy and engage/support entrepreneurs in the Downtown Dover Business Improvement District, and specifically, first-floor commercial spaces on Loockerman Street and streets directly adjacent to Loockerman.

This initiative encourages economic revitalization, facilitate re-development of first-floor commercial properties, and contribute to a vibrant downtown commercial district by securing owners of retail and professional goods and service businesses that have the capacity to serve/draw local and regional customers alike.

Whether you are an established business looking expand in, or into, downtown Dover, or are interested in the “Unlock the Block” process as it unfolds, let’s keep in touch!
