Centre When you visit downtown Centre, you can’t help but notice the new energy. City Councilwoman Kay Davis is enthusiastic about the ‘new look’ making its way down Main Street. In conjunction with local Master Gardeners, the city is working to make the streetscape even more lovely and inviting. Planters feature seasonal flowers and plants, complimenting the outdoor accouterments and colorful banners. Each block is themed to be interesting and creative. Davis said, “Of course we want more tourists, but we want people coming to Centre – not passing through Centre. When visitors discover downtown, we welcome them to see more, and to enjoy southern hospitality at its finest.” One of the most popular additions to the district is F.C. Weiss Pub and Eatery located at 181 West Main Street. Sean and Beverly Edwards purchased the building in May 2017. The interior was completely renovated, and the façade updated with new paint and signage. Now the space is home to a 42-seat restaurant. When asked about the resurgence of downtown Beverly says, “It is exciting to see all of the new businesses moving downtown. New events are being introduced like the night parade for Christmas to bring more people downtown.”
