Downtown Housing Improvement Program
More housing in downtown Morganton is one of the largest and most consistent wishes expressed by citizens, and the City of Morganton is taking a huge step to meet that demand.
After an intensive Masterplan process for the downtown area that involved more than a year’s worth of public input, surveys, and market studies to layout a vision for the future of downtown, the City was not surprised that the Masterplan showed that a large percentage of Baby Boomers and Millennials prefer city-living over a suburban lifestyle.
