Wilkes-Barre is an opportunity waiting for you. Since 2001 Wilkes-Barre has committed itself to a revitalized Main Street with a clean and green program designed to increase traffic to this small City. 14000 people come to work daily in Wilkes-Barre. Downtown is anchored by two four year institutions Wilkes University and Kings College. Each school has played an instrumental role in remaking Wilkes-Barre into a “college town”. With over 6500 enrolled day students the very walkable downtown has come alive with an abundance of quality restaurants, fast food, pizza shops, art venues and a 14 screen movie.
The Downtown Business Association provide shoppers with fine retail merchandise and services. Most are owner-operated which helps to insure personalized service. A mixed use atmosphere with architecture from many eras makes the downtown an ideal place to visit and do business. The City serves as the nucleus for 212,000 people within a 10 mile radius. And, as the government center of Luzerne County, a wide variety of office and professional suites are available. (to learn more click here) |
