Historic Downtown Leesburg is a “Norman Rockwell” type city that has become one of Florida’s top ten shopping meccas, attracting thousands of tourists, shoppers and collectors with yesteryear prices and today’s specialized shops.

Major renovation of the downtown area has implemented a master plan of improvements that has attracted stores with unique products that are meeting the shopping interests and needs of tourists and local residents alike.

Historic Downtown Leesburg was named a Florida Main Street City in 1994 and is recognized as a “city with a vision.”

When you walk down W. Main Street (from 9th to 2nd Streets) you are attracted to historic buildings, street-side music and signs that designate the type of businesses one remembers when shopping in central city stores many years ago. Leesburg stores feature personalized and customized services that starts with a genuine “Welcome” and ends with an appreciative “Thank You.”

Leesburg’s vision relates to the types of stores the Rockwell portrayed in his famous “Saturday Evening Post” scenes… an old-time barber shop, photo studio, family clothing stores, florist shops, several unique antique stores, a book and record store, and a seldom seen old 1930’s theatre. Update this image to include… a day spa and beauty salons, jewelry and furniture stores, electronic and music stores, quilt supplies, scrapbook materials, fitness salon and picture-framing shop.

Complimenting the shopping experience are several restaurants that offer diverse menus and memorable cuisine.
