As the years go by, Downtown Corpus Christi is bringing people back to the area to live.
K-Space Contemporary Executive Director Michelle Smythe said she has been in the area since 1998, and during that time, the Downtown area did not see much movement.
But now, that is completely changing. We have seen Downtown really start to come back and become more populated, and the Downtown Management District has done so much work, she said.

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas â Whether it be free haircuts or book and blanket giveaways; on Sundays at Artesian Park, you can find the group Tacos Not Bombs giving a helping hand to those who are in need.
If you stop by on a Sunday, you may notice long lines, a major factor is the free meals handed out by volunteers. However, the way the plates are being passed out will change, as the group will now say no to handing out food with plastic bags. Tacos Not Bombs administrator John Meza said he has gotten many reports concerning the use and disposing of plastic bags.
Days after the city of Corpus Christi went over Downtown's challenges and accomplishments, locals voice what they believe could make the area more thriving.
