Streetscape Improvement Plan
The Streetscape Improvement Plan creates a consistent, attractive design for downtown Elkins — including Railroad Avenue, 1st Street, John Street, and Randolph Avenue (State Route 33). These enhancements will:
-
Revitalize the downtown core
-
Attract new businesses and visitors
-
Boost safety and walkability
-
Improve the quality of life for residents
What's Involved with the Plan for the New Streetscape?
The master plan includes analysis, design concepts, a materials palette, and specific recommendations. It also reimagines Tablet Square at the Rail Depot and provides a phased approach the city can implement as funding becomes available.
Current funding status (as of Summer 2026): The City of Elkins is seeking Congressionally Directed Spending and Tax Increment Financing (TIF) to implement the plan.
