History

Downtown Miamisburg was once the city's commercial center, but Downtown Miamisburg was diminished greatly due to:

  • I-75 replacing U.S. Route 25 and other key roads
  • Bigger shops and stores opening nearby in Miamisburg
  • Opening of the Dayton Mall
  • Downtown's aging housing and commercial spaces.

Due to the growth of nearby suburbs, Downtown Miamisburg has seen little to no growth at all. However, the government of Miamisburg decided to restore Downtown in 2001. Currently, the plans have started, and the city is looking into building a Riverscape Park alongside the local river. Many historic buildings in Miamisburg have been restored and renovated.

Attractions

In Downtown Miamisburg, visitors may see many small stores, such as The Antiques Barn and Miamisburg Art Gallery.

Mears Center, Gebhart Tavern, Market Square, and Library Park nearby.
