February is officially here and whether you like it or not, it’s time for all the gushy “love is in the air” quotes. We are here to tell you though that you do not have to have a “plus one” to enjoy Valentine’s Day! Here is a quick round up of some fun events and ideas on how to enjoy the love holiday in the loveliest (downtown) village.
First, let me start off by saying that I am by no means an Enneagram expert. This is just for all of you people like me who enjoy little things like this!

Downtown Auburn is no stranger to progress. As Auburn grows, so does downtown. Perhaps one of the most significant growing pains is the need for additional parking.
You may have noticed a large empty spot with construction on N. College St. where the Auburn Baptist Student Center was once located. In May of this year, the City of Auburn broke ground and a large concrete deck is underway.
The deck will have frontage on N. College but vehicles will enter and exit off of Wright St. The Auburn Baptist Student Center will be re-homed on the ground floor of the deck. The parking deck will have 350 metered spaces for public use and is slated to be completed by 2021.
Other improvements to include new landscaping or what is referred to as a “pocket park” in the front on College St.
