A four block stretch of Butler Avenue, extending from the Ambler Train Station to Lindenwood Avenue, is the focal point of Ambler Borough’s Central Business District. It underwent a transformation in the early 1980’s that involved new curbs/sidewalks, street regrading, parking reconfiguration, streetscape improvements (lighting, landscaping, trees, signage & street furniture), and careful consideration of pedestrian safety. The improvements, which have a Victorian theme, revitalized the downtown core into a pedestrian friendly shopping district. Butler Avenue is now home to a wide variety of restaurants, stores and offices, the Act II Playhouse, and many community events.  Among its prominent structures are the refurbished Ambler Theater (1927) and the Wyndham Hotel (1894). “Ambler Main Street” maintains the vitality of Butler Avenue with its support of local businesses and promotion of the downtown as a social, cultural and business center. Many visitors are drawn to the diverse downtown offerings and community events, such as the Ambler Arts & Music Festival, Auto Show, Octoberfest, Christmas Parade, First Friday activities, weekly Farmers Market, and two Restaurant weeks.
