Downtown Corpus Christi

Our Downtown Region
The Marina Arts District is the neighborhood that the Downtown Management District is based on. The District is bounded by Furman Avenue to I-37, and Lower Broadway to the Corpus Christi Marina L and T-Heads. In 2023, the property owners voted to renew the district through 2033. In 2024, DMD led stakeholders through an unprecedented expansion process, which was approved in April 2024 by the City Council, officially expanding DMD's district operation services into Water's Edge District, now branded as South Downtown.

Corpus Christi Downtown Management District

The Corpus Christi Downtown Management District has facilitated and championed several public and private projects that have continued to transform Downtown Corpus Christi since DMD’s inception in 1993. The Downtown Management District is responsible for providing enhanced cleaning, beautification and safety services, develop and improve the district, market and promote the district, events and businesses and address critical issues that affect the success of the district and greater Downtown area on behalf of our stakeholders and the community.

In 2023, the property owners voted to renew the district through 2033.
