The Revitalize San Pedro Partnership (RSPP) is a nonprofit organization that grew out of a coalition formed over a decade ago by four adjoining neighborhood associations and local business leaders to focus on preserving and improving the San Pedro Main Street corridor, which stretches between I-40 and Central Avenue in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Our vision:

The San Pedro Main Street corridor is a vibrant, diverse, safe, well-lit, tree-lined, walkable, family-friendly, welcoming, and economically vital place to live, work, and visit, attracting visitors to experience its amenities.

Our mission:

Revitalize San Pedro Partnership (RSPP) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that facilitates improvement, growth, preservation, and promotion of the San Pedro Main Street corridor through direct partnership with local businesses, residents, and community partners.

Our operating principles:

Responsive to Community

RSPP sets its priorities in partnership with the people and businesses of the corridor — property and business owners, the people who work at and patronize them, surrounding residents, and the neighborhood associations that represent them. RSPP listens before it acts, and acts in partnership rather than alone.

People-first

Investments in infrastructure, policy, and programming serve the corridor’s businesses, organizations, and neighborhoods by serving the people who make them up. People are the means by which the corridor thrives — not incidental to it.

Visible & Tangible

Alongside long-term work, RSPP delivers improvements people can see and experience along the way — because sustained support depends on the corridor feeling different, not just trending toward different.

Preservation-minded

RSPP works to secure, preserve, and enhance the corridor’s identity as a global innovation, cultural, and commercial corridor, with a long history of innovation and diversity that makes it worth investing in.

Economic Transformation Strategy–driven

Work is organized around the Main Street Approach’s Four Points and RSPP’s defined Transformation Strategies, grounded in research, market data, and documented community input. Decisions and public claims are held to a standard of accuracy and transparency.

Patient & Long-term

RSPP invests in the public policy, institutional reform, and regulatory and financial mechanisms that take years to build but make lasting transformation possible.

The Main Street Approach

The Main Street Approach is centered around Transformation Strategies. A Transformation Strategy articulates a focused, deliberate path to revitalizing or strengthening a downtown or commercial district’s economy. Each Transformation Strategy is implemented through activities in the four broad areas of work represented by the Four Points:

ECONOMIC VITALITY

ECONOMIC VITALITY focuses on capital, incentives, and other economic and financial tools to assist new and existing businesses, catalyze property development, and create a supportive environment for entrepreneurs and innovators that drive local economies. Learn more >

DESIGN

DESIGN supports a community’s transformation by enhancing the physical and visual assets that set the commercial district apart. Learn more >

PROMOTION

positions the downtown or commercial district as the center of the community and hub of economic activity, while creating a positive image that showcases a community’s unique characteristics. Learn more >

ORGANIZATION

ORGANIZATION involves creating a strong foundation for a sustainable revitalization effort, including cultivating partnerships, community involvement, and resources for the district. Learn more >
