about

The Acre Partnership came to life in March 2022 with a straightforward goal: to catalyze the economic and cultural revival of the Merrimack and Market Street Corridor. The Acre Partnership utilizes MassDevelopment's Transformative Development Initiative as a vehicle for neighborhood improvements. We're a group focused on real, on-the-ground change. We believe in the power of local action to drive progress and are all about bringing together residents, business owners, and community leaders to make our neighborhood not just a place to live, but a place to thrive.

The Acre Partnership is rolling up our sleeves to build a neighborhood that celebrates its unique character while opening doors for economic opportunities. The Acre Partnership is about harnessing the Corridor's potential to become a bustling, friendly area that invites people to shop, stroll, and interact. By directing resources and attention to where they matter most, we’re nurturing an environment where local businesses can grow and the community can enjoy the fruits of shared efforts.

 

Community is at the heart of what we do. We're here to create spaces that people love, to support the dreams of local entrepreneurs, and to craft a connected, accessible neighborhood. It's about making sure that the growth we foster is the growth that benefits those who call the Acre home. This is a team effort, and everyone's invited to join in as we build a lively, engaging community together.
