Downtown Development

Welcome to Downtown Wake Forest

In October 2012, Wake Forest Downtown, Inc. (WFD) officially joined the Town of Wake Forest as the Downtown Development Department. The move came after the Board of Commissioners agreed to bring the executive director position of WFD in-house at the request of the organization's board of directors.

WFD's Board of Directors continue in its current capacity as a 501(c)(3) organization.
