Wabash Marketplace is a non-profit organization to foster growth in Downtown Wabash.
Since 1981, we fulfill our mission to save buildings, promote downtown, and invigorate the local economy with a robust mix of donors and membership. We use the National Main Street Four Point Approach as a foundation for our organization. It is a unique preservation-based economic development tool that was created by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. The four points of the Main Street approach work together to build a community revitalization effort. We hope to see you in downtown soon!
