Explore Auburn's Heart
Downtown Auburn is waiting for you
Downtown is the heart and soul of our community. From our beautiful historic buildings to new developments, and from unique retail shops to local service businesses, downtown is where people come together.
It's a place to gather with friends, enjoy conversations, shop locally, and create lasting memories. We are especially excited about the new theater and park being built, which will provide even more opportunities for people to connect and enjoy everything our community has to offer.
Whether you're grabbing a cup of coffee, enjoying a meal, browsing local shops, or simply taking a walk, downtown is a wonderful place to spend time and experience the spirit of our community.
Come downtown and see what makes it so special!
Discover Downtown Auburn! From historic charm to new attractions, downtown Auburn has something for everyone. Check out the murals, art sculptures, and soon, beautifully painted fire hydrants. It's the perfect place for a stroll and a little exploration!
Murals & flowers bring color to Downtown
Many people have asked about the black planters throughout downtown. These planters are part of our Adopt-a-Planter Program!
The Downtown Auburn Cooperative purchases the planters and provides the plants for the initial installation, while the City supplies the soil. Participating businesses then adopt a planter and are responsible for its ongoing care and maintenance for as long as they choose to participate.
One of the best parts of the program is that businesses have the opportunity to personalize their planter with plants and flowers that reflect their style and help beautify downtown Auburn.
