The Board and Staff

The Uptown Lexington, Inc. Board of Directors is comprised of sixteen volunteers that share a common vision for the uptown center.
Vision Statement: Uptown Lexington is the leading business, community and government center of Davidson County, a place full of people and activity. It has preserved the honest, small-town character of its past while filling its historic structures with a new and lively mix of locally owned shops, quality office space, and urban residences. It is the place that expresses the unique culture and heritage of Lexington - where the "known" and the "home grown" are valued over the franchised and the homogenized.
