Our Story

Uptown Roxboro Group (formerly Roxboro Development Group) is a non-profit responsible for helping the area develop and thrive. RDG has been a member of the North Carolina Main Street Program since 1995 and follows the Main Street approach to economic sustainability by working on developing community partners and resources, design asset development through economic reuse and programming. The N.C. Main Street program assists selected communities across the state in restoring economic vitality to their historic downtowns. Using a comprehensive downtown revitalization process developed by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, Main Street encourages economic development within the context of historic preservation.

In the Spring of 2017, RDG began a branding initiative including research in the community and in comepeting communities. During the course of the branding reseearch, it became obvious there was confusion with the interchangeable names (Uptown Roxboro Development Group, Roxboro Development Group, Historic Roxboro). The new name effective 2018- Uptown Roxboro Group- is a more accurate reflection of the area and activiteis the group manages.

Uptown Roxboro is developing the art in living. The area has a cozy, urban feel but small town accessibility and safety. It is full of unexpected surprises for a town of it’s size. Farm-to-fork dining and other great family-friendly restaurants, a craft brewery, colorful murals, a thriving arts scene and theater and shopping opportunities from thrift to gift.
