David Benda explores redevelopment efforts in downtown Redding where over the past few decades have brought in various signs of progress, including the Market Street Demonstration Block, the Market Street Promenade, the redevelopment of the Cascade Theatre, and Cascade Square. Despite these efforts, downtown Redding has remained primarily a Monday-through-Friday destination for workers. However, the recent development of multi-million-dollar projects such as Market Center, Block 7, and the new Shasta County Courthouse has led to a ripple effect of smaller projects that are bringing more housing to the area and making downtown more livable and walkable.
