Berwyn’s original developers marketed the new community as “the place for homes and business,” and that statement remains true over one hundred years later.  Although merchants, restaurants, service providers, and industrial uses can be found throughout the city, Berwyn possesses four distinct business and shopping areas, each with its own unique architectural identity and economic vitality. These geographic areas, featuring Tax Increment Financing (TIF) incentives, provide a wide assortment of products and services for area residents, employees, commuters, and shoppers.  To find out more about TIF assistance programs available for businesses, click here.  For more information on each TIF corridor, please click on the links below.
