Toledo, Ohio… In
an effort to promote more pedestrian traffic in the central
business district and frankly just to have a good time, the
Downtown Toledo Improvement District Inc. (DTID) is again
sponsoring a free downtown luncheon concert series in Levis
Square. “Lunch at Levis Square” will occur every Thursday, May
29th through August 28th from 12 noon to
1:30 p.m.
“Brown-bag it”
or purchase your lunch from our food and beverage vendors,
you’ll have a great time meeting your friends in Levis Square.
Levis Square is located at the intersection of Madison Avenue
and North St. Clair Street in downtown Toledo.
“One of the
overall objectives of our organization is to rekindle a sense of
place in our downtown,” said Tom Crothers, DTID Executive
Director. “With the arrival of warmer weather, we again look
forward to seeing lots of folks tapping their toes to the tunes
while they enjoy a satisfying lunch.”
“This is a
wonderful opportunity to enjoy some great performers that most
people haven’t had the chance to see,” said Beth Frisinger, DTID
Administrative Assistant. “This program will encourage downtown
workers and visitors alike to take a refreshing mid-day break
near the end of a busy work week.”
