Today marks the second installment of “Townie Tuesday” in downtown Stillwater.

The Lift Bridge is closed, and the traffic congestion is gone so more than 40 downtown merchants will remain open until at 8 p.m. and offer “Townie Tuesdays Specials” to workers and residents living in zip codes 55082, 55003 and 55042.

“This is the perfect opportunity for downtown businesses and area consumers to see how pleasant downtown will be once the new bridge is open and the Lift Bridge is converted into a pedestrian and bike path in 2017,” Todd Streeter, executive director, Greater Stillwater Chamber and Townie Tuesdays co-organizer said. “When combined with the Browns Creek Trail and new Lowell Park improvements, I firmly believe downtown Stillwater will experience a renaissance unmatched at any time in its history.”
