Town aims to boost business with county cooperation in 1954
In the 1954 town campaign three winners urged rapid action to expand business and industry, proposing a roughly $1 million plan to annex areas. Mayor John Marlow Councilman-elect Michael Kitts and Edwin Pomeroy stressed stronger town county cooperation to overcome historic friction and revitalize Front Royal. South Royal Avenue’s historic houses now host 13 commercial ventures in a three block area, with residents converting homes into shops such as Marie’s Beauty Shop and Royal Oak Book Shop, reflecting downtown revitalization and historic preservation efforts.
