Welcome to the Myrtle Avenue BID & the Ridgewood Community!

The Myrtle Avenue Business Improvement District (BID) was established in 1988. Our organization helps to make Myrtle Avenue, from Wyckoff Avenue to Fresh Pond Road in Ridgewood, a great place to shop and do business by keeping the streets clean, safe, green and lively with programs and events. As the voice of the local merchant and real estate community, we work to ensure that the retail mix is meeting shopper needs, and that Myrtle Avenue is an ideal place for new and thriving businesses.

Our site provides you with information about who we are, a database of Myrtle Avenue’s over 300 retail businesses, and information about our programs & services including our Market Analysis & Retail Attraction Program. The site also highlights events on our tree-lined streets and beautiful plazas. We hope you will visit often to see everything that we have planned in 2026.
