Downtown Redding is entering a period of substantial development and revitalization. As a result of this change, the downtown area is quickly becoming one of Redding’s most alluring attractions.  Local families, college students and other residents of all ages are now beginning to stroll the downtown sidewalks, providing a substantial customer base for the various businesses.

Redding’s natural beauty has always been a major draw for residents and businesses alike. Downtown provides a close proximity to the Sacramento River and the renowned Turtle Bay Exploration Park, which is within walking distance.

The growth in Redding’s downtown workforce has also helped fuel the local commercial sector. Downtown employees regularly venture out before, during and after working hours for meals, meetings or just to grab a cup of coffee, all of which benefits local businesses.
 
So, what are you looking for in downtown Redding? A place to put your restaurant, clothing store, office or maybe your home? Construction on 'the Gateway building' is slated to start in 2008.

The Gateway building is being developed with one paramount concept in mind, Community. This mixed use development will offer commercial, restaurant, office, and residential leasing opportunities.
