  Your Neighborhood Association.

  Join Us Today!

• Since 2002 the Downtown Neighborhood Association (DNA) membership has become a passport to some of the best social offerings in the city – from challenging architectural tours, to member-only events., after-hours receptions, sports events, and cultural excursions. Best of all you get to meet your neighbors, make new friends and make the neighborhood part of your life.

  Don’t Live Downtown? Don’t Worry! We offer a Non-Resident Non-Voting Membership for those that want to support downtown, attend our socials, network and get great benefits from our business members.
