Damascus faces growth while protecting its historic core. Officials push Main Street improvements, narrower highway lanes, and redevelopment plans at the Amoco Front while delaying landscaping until road work ends. Community leaders seek state reconsideration on lane width to avoid later redesign. Local business and residents weigh impacts on downtown access and aging residents.
