904 Main Street

In 2023, the Dallas Downtown Association was awarded $200,000 in funding from the Oregon Main Street Revitalization Grant Program for upper story improvements at the former Latitude One restaurant at 904 Main Street. This grant will fund part two of a two part project at the site. Part one of the project includes an extensive seismic retrofitting of the building to ensure that the building can withstand seismic events. Part two of this project will restore and renovate the second story of the building to be used for downtown commercial space. The project is expected to be completed in 2025.


Past Projects


The Dallas Arts Association, City of Dallas, and the Dallas Downtown Association completed the Wings Mural project. Painted Wings were spread throughout Dallas. Come to downtown and check them out!

In 2022, the DDA and City of Dallas celebrated the completion and restoration of the old Carnegie Library building in Downtown Dallas. Previously a library and museum, the Carnegie Building fell into a state of disrepair and through a period of different owners unable to adequately renovate the space. In 2021, the DDA partnered with new owner Don Sheely to apply for the Oregon Main Street Revitalization Grant. The DDA and project were awarded $200,000 to help renovate the building and to create a usable space. Since January 2023, the building is now used as a school for a private school new to the Dallas area.
