5 Downtown Roseville Highlights from 2019
2019 was a big year in Downtown Roseville, with new businesses opening up shop, local art popping up around Vernon Street, and award-winning annual events bringing our community together like never before. It’s been a year of growth and expansion for our downtown, and we’re reminded more than ever how incredible this community we call home truly is. As 2019 comes to a close, we’ve rounded up a few highlights from this year...
Painting Downtown Roseville with five original works of art by five local artists, the Roseville Mural Project was an incredible community effort. Completed in Spring, the end result was a true testament to this amazing city, its history, and the community we are so happy to be a part of. If you haven't already, we urge you to discover these exceptional works of art by exploring the project on Instagram (#RosevilleMuralProject), or -- better yet -- visit these spectacular new murals located around our downtown!
Roseville Bridges & Trail Project
This Summer, the Downtown Bridges & Trail project created beautiful spaces and brought more connectivity to Downtown Roseville! Thanks to this project, there is now a continuous six-mile long trail from Sierra College Boulevard through downtown to Darling Way. The project also saw the refurbishment and rotation of the historic Rube Nelson Ice House Bridge which connected the trail across Dry Creek, added the Taylor Street pedestrian bridge connecting Royer Park to the Downtown Library, as well as a new downtown pedestrian bridge providing a direct connection between Royer Park and Vernon Street Town Square. Additionally, 36 more trees were planted in downtown Roseville!
Upon completion, the community came out to help us Celebrate Downtown with a full day of fun, complete with a morning bike ride around the newly-opened bridges and trail, the official Grand Opening celebration, our annual Family Fest, an old fashioned carnival, fire station open house, and live music! With our community growing more and more each year, this project helped bring greater accessibility and connectivity to Downtown Roseville!
Roseville’s Downtown Tuesday Nights
Roseville Downtown Tuesday Nights (our favorite way to spend Tuesday summer nights) was named Best Annual Event in the area! A big thank you to our community and all those who voted for Roseville Downtown Tuesday Nights in Style Mag’s Best of 2019 Readers Choice Awards -- we already can’t wait for all the fun in store for next Summer!
Roseville Alley Clean Up Project
On a crisp Autumn weekend, Scouts from local Troop 828 showed their support for our neighborhood by dedicating their Saturday to helping clean up the alleys and streets around downtown Roseville! This was no small task, and their hard work and dedication further illustrate our community’s positive influence on Downtown Roseville.
