A thriving downtown for a thriving Tyler
- Vitality
- Events
- Beautification

Growing heart first
At Heart of Tyler, we know our town can be a destination. But, in order for that to happen, we need a thriving downtown, because—just like any ecosystem—a city can’t thrive without a healthy heart.
We understand that when a town like ours is growing, it’s easy to overlook the heart: downtown. We believe you shouldn’t have to choose between helping downtown grow and investing right where you are.


That's why Heart of Tyler makes it easy for you to have a hand in downtown – no matter where your feet are planted.
We’re a nonprofit that partners with the City to give you ways to be a part of downtown’s …
- Economic Vitality
- Events
- Upkeep & Beautification

Because when...
Downtown attracts local businesses
More entertainment and dining options open in Tyler
Tyler has more tourist destinations
Our city-wide economy benefits
Civic and local institutions thrive
Schools improve, job opportunities increase, safety improves
For the city.
From the heart.
For over 30 years, Heart of Tyler has tended to downtown to make sure Tyler grows sustainably — from the inside out. We’re led by Tyler citizens from all over the city who care deeply about our community.
As the only nonprofit devoted to downtown, we partner with the municipal government to ensure our efforts create real impact that doesn’t stop downtown.

Sundays are for brunching, besties, and begging 🐾
These pups have one thing on their mind (besides bacon): walks + waffles. Even with downtown construction, there’s still plenty of space to stroll, sniff, and snack 🍳🦴
Heritage Etx’s patio is pup-approved, and downtown Tyler is still wide open for four-legged fun. Don’t let the detours fool you 🚦good vibes (and bacon) are still on the menu.

📍Downtown Tyler Living – Then & Now
We love seeing Downtown’s rich history come alive through spaces like Apartment 119A at 121 E Erwin, lovingly restored by the O’Sullivan family, longtime champions of downtown revitalization. 🧱✨
This building earned the Best Restoration Award from the Texas Downtown Association way back in 1996! That’s nearly 30 years of pride in preserving what makes Downtown Tyler unique.
Even though this particular loft has already been leased, we highly recommend stopping by today between 3–6 PM to take in the space, the craftsmanship, and that iconic view of the courthouse construction 🤩
👀 More than just a tour, it’s a chance to see what’s possible when history meets vision. Big thanks to the O’Sullivans for continuing to invest in the heart of our city.

Meet Meg Matus, Heart of Tyler Board Member. Originally from New Orleans, Meg and her husband Bryan relocated to Tyler to begin her dream of owning a Rotolo’s and starting a family. Together, they’ve successfully built both—with heart, hustle, and a love for community.
The Matus family now includes three children: Nola, Mac, and Roux. Following the success of Rotolo’s in South Tyler, the business expanded downtown this year with a new slice counter inside Plaza Tower at True Vine on the Square. Meg’s drive and vision also led to the opening of a brand-new Rotolo’s location in Carrollton, TX, growing their footprint while staying rooted in local values.
Meg’s passion for small business, community engagement, and family makes her a valued and inspiring member of the Heart of Tyler board!

The health of any community can be gauged by the health of its downtown, so these efforts are vital. I love downtown Tyler because there is a culture of collaboration, lifting up others, the arts, and celebrating everyone’s success that permeates the area. The people downtown are just wonderful… whether they are investing their time, their finances, or their livelihoods into our downtown, you won’t find better people anywhere!"
