CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — Corpus Christi continues to grow, and you can see it in the management district's upcoming 2021 State of Downtown Impact Report.
So far the city has been able to invest 50,000 dollars of Texas CARES Act funds into local businesses. These investments helped businesses to open pop-up, open air patios to support them through the pandemic.
$400,000 was invested into opening one way streets into two way roads in order to better connect downtown and the Bayfront.
Alyssa Barrera-Mason, the DMD Executive Director, said her team was focused on creating "The most vibrant downtown on the Gulf of Mexico."
