Most all businesses are co-dependant on other businesses. Whether it be to help drive foot traffic or fix a busted pipe, everybody needs somebody sometime.

Need new glass for your store front? the glass shop is only a few blocks north. Get all your banking done downtown - the original financial district - with a real live person. Need a part for your AC unit or that hard to find bolt for your vintage desk? The Nut & Bolt supply store is only a hop and skip away. Oops, you accidentally fell down the stairs and broke your ankle? The Hospital is just up Jefferson a few blocks. Got a flat tire? No problem. A garage is close by that will deliver you car to your downtown office so you don't miss any work. Rx Drug stores, Dollar Stores, safety supplies, - all these things and much more are only blocks from your downtown location.

Food
If you work you need food. If you're like us and work late you need sometimes need breakfast lunch and dinner before you even think about making it home. The downtown area has everything from fast food to full service formal dining and event space.
