Q: What are your favorite Downtown spots?
To eat and drink, we’re often at Mesa Moreira, Skillet2Plate, Mudhook Brewing Company, and The Handsome Cab. We especially love The Handsome Cab for a cocktail, as the bartender James really and truly is one of the best mixologists! We also love the farmers markets where you can find pretty much anything you need. We love grabbing our favorite wine from Mark & Val Wines at Penn Street Market. You can also find us hanging out in the Royal Square District, especially at Granfalloons!
When it comes to shopping, Downtown York has so many good spots. The two spots I (CoCo) frequent the most are Central Market and Penn Street Market – I go at least once a week! And I shop at Confidence by CC to prep for my performances. downtown, so you’ll often see me around at many of the shops!
Downtown York is full of cultural arts and history. We have performers like myself, but also those painting, sculpting, and making York more beautiful.
Q: As a performer, what are some of your favorite spots and organizations to partner with?
There are so many that we love to partner with for performances, but to name a few: Cultural Alliance of York County, Weary Arts Group, Appell Center for the Performing Arts, Rainbow Rose Center, and YCEA/ Downtown Inc. We also like performing at Granfalloons and Mudhook Brewing Company!

YORK’S HOROLOGICAL LEGACY CONTINUES at the York Time Institute
BY SARAH O’BRIEN | DIRECTOR, DOWNTOWN INC
history with clockmaking continues today.
In the 300 block of West Market Street, just west of the Codorus Creek in WeCo, a humble but auspicious-looking sign hangs proudly above the steps of 312 W Market Street alerting passersby to the presence of the York Time Institute and its founding horologist Dan Nied. Boasting a variety of clocks, watches, and impressive machinery, walking through the first-floor workshop is like taking a step back in time. One can expect to find eager students and apprentices passing time with Dan studying and repairing various timepieces.
The York Time Institute’s renowned expert in the art & science of Horology, Dan Nied has been diligently training the “next generation” of experts for over two decades.
Nied. The 54-week Diploma Program is licensed by the Pennsylvania State Board of Private Licensed Schools, and produces a cadre of experts, no more than seven students at a time, to ensure personalized training.
Several of Dan’s recent graduates have joined forces and launched their own Mid-Atlantic Horological Cooperative, just a few blocks from the Institute. Some might see this as competition, but not Dan. Dan couldn’t be more excited that his students had taken the knowledge gained under his direction and set up shop so close to him. “If I can train someone to be better than me, and I’m famous, that’s a sign of real successthat’s a compliment to me, I want my students to exceed what I've been able to do. They have to go further than me - that’s the whole idea,” said Nied.
How Dan Nied is preserving York’s clockmaking heritage and training the next generation of horologists
Dan and his wife live upstairs of the school and busy horology studio. From caretaking pieces for the Yorktowne Hotel during their recent transformation, to repairing pocket watches, or taking apart grandfather clocks from days gone by, the York Time Institute is much more than a repair shop, it is a testament to Dan’s abundant mindset.
When asked what Dan loves most about his Downtown York location, he commented that it was the sense of community and cooperation that gave him the greatest sense of pride. Neid stated “You must work together with people in the area to be successful. We recommend people go to the market or dine down the street.” Nothing demonstrates his community mindset more than the fact that Dan always recommends out-of-town students stay at Grace Manor B&B, located just a few doors down from the institute. According to Dan, the only downside to this arrangement is the fact that Grace Manor innkeeper Joanne Wilmore’s breakfasts are so big and fulfilling that it is not at all diet-friendly.
Dan is humble and modest and holds many of the stories of his great success close to his chest, like the work he has done for world-class museums and customers as far away as France. But he did share with great pride the story of how the Time Institute and his fascination and passion for clockmaking came to be. Dan stated “In 1957 the only valuable thing that we owned was my great grand- father's watch. My father once left the watch in his upper left-hand drawer. I was bored one day, and I took it apart down to the last screw. Once my dad found it, he told me, you have two hours to put it together or I will kill you. My dad never spoke like that. I started putting it together and had it running in less than half an hour.”
Dan has always had a passion for the intricacies of clocks, watches, and horology, and has committed over fifty years of his life to instilling that same sense of commitment and dedication to the next generation of horologists.

CRAFTING BEER C munity
As you enter Downtown York from North George Street, quaintly positioned on North Street, you’ll find Liquid Hero’s original location where they’ve held a steadfast presence since 2011. Now in a bigger location at 251 N. George Street, just a few doors up the street from their original spot, they’ve expanded their offerings to include food, making this beloved bar a true destination for locals and visitors alike.
Liquid Hero’s story begins in 2008 when Christian Quinlivan, Matt DePrato, and Josh Hoke — lifelong friends with a shared passion for brewing — started experimenting with beer recipes in their backyards. What began as a hobby with a turkey fryer quickly grew into a full-blown operation. “We were brewing before it was cool,” Christian recalls. “We concocted our recipes from scratch, even built our own brew systems.”
As York’s craft beer scene started to take off, the trio found themselves in the right place at the right time. They began bringing their creations to local beer fests, like those at the Agricultural and Industrial Museum, where their brews gained popularity. “People were asking where to buy our beer,” Christian says. “The craft brew scene was so new, and we hit it at just the right time.”
Liquid Hero’s next chapter
~
“It’s a simple concept: craft beer bars that are approachable, with a ‘Cheers’ environment.”
CHRISTIAN QUINLIVAN, LIQUID HERO
Popper Burger: 2 smash patties, cream cheese sauce, fried jalapeno, black pepper raspberry sauce, thick-cut bacon, on a sesame seed brioche (above, right))
Southwest Chicken Salad: Marinated locally sourced chicken, black beans, corn, red onion,
they opened the doors of Liquid Hero in October 2011, one of the first of a new wave of craft breweries in York County. The first beer on tap at the Holy Hound was a Liquid Hero creation, a fitting start to what has become a thriving local industry.
As the years passed, Liquid Hero continued to grow. By their third and fourth years, they had saved enough to buy a professional brewing system and expand their market research. When the opportunity arose to move into a larger space just up the street, they jumped at the chance. “We had a following,” Christian explains. “It took six months of planning and four months of building, but we made it our own.”
Today, Liquid Hero’s brewing operations remain at their original location, which is still open for special events and occasions. The new location, however, has allowed them to expand their offerings significantly. With 10 beers on tap that rotate almost weekly, along with a growing cocktail menu featuring favorites like watermelon and orange crushes, there’s something for everyone in the family.
The addition of food has been a game-changer, thanks in large part to Executive Chef Brian Augustyniak. Referred by a mutual friend, Brian brings a wealth of experience. He’s kept the menu simple but solid, with daily specials and weekly Chef’s features. “If you have a solid base, you can grow,” Brian says, emphasizing the importance of making a good first impression.
Brian is not just about creating great dishes; he’s deeply invested in the customer experience. He often comes out of the kitchen to talk with customers, gathering feedback and ensuring that everyone leaves satisfied. This hands-on approach allows him to adjust the menu and keep the offerings fresh and appealing. Moreover, Liquid Hero is committed to quality, sourcing ingredients from local farms and butchers. This dedication to local sourcing ensures that every dish not only supports the community but also delivers the best possible flavors to its patrons.
Liquid Hero’s new space has quickly become a community hub, with a welcoming atmosphere where regulars and newcomers alike feel at home. “It’s a simple concept,” Christian says. “Craft beer bars that are approachable, with a ‘Cheers’ environment.” The restaurant is dog-friendly with outdoor seating, proximity to York County Rail Trail, weekly bingo nights, and special events like Taco Tuesdays have all contributed to its success.
For Christian, the move to a larger space and the introduction of food is just the next step in Liquid Hero’s evolution. “The easiest way to someone’s heart is through their belly,” he says with a grin. And with Brian’s dedication to customer satisfaction, Liquid is sure to keep winning hearts in York for years to come.
Christian summed up his feelings about the future of Liquid Hero and its place in York. “I’m proud as shit and very fortunate for the people that work here,” he said.

Living Between York’s History and Its Vibrant Present
From
historic preservation to community spirit, Jerri Worley embodies the evolving charm of downtown living
BY HANNAH BEARD I MARKETING & MERCHANT ENGAGEMENT MANAGER
At 81 years young, Jerri Worley is a living testament to the vibrant and evolving spirit of Downtown York. Sitting in her sunlit apartment overlooking Continental Square, Jerri shared with us the rich tapestry of her life, deeply intertwined with the history and community of York.
Jerri moved into her current apartment eight years ago, one of the first residents to embrace living in Continental Square. "It used to be a government building," she reminisces, "and before that, it housed the Bear’s Department Store." Jerri, like many Yorkers, thinks back fondly on Bear’s, one of three major department stores in York City for decades, and a destination for holiday shopping.
Before moving to Continental Square, Jerri lived in various parts of York and even grew up in the city. Jerri's connection to York runs deep, having grown up in the city until the seventh grade before moving to Jacobus. After a career as a clinical social worker, Jerri has settled back into city life, where she enjoys the walkability, the theaters like the Appell Center, and the convenience of having everything within one square block. "What’s not to like?" she asks with a smile.
"If you have any interest in architecture, this is a destination," Jerri proudly states. "You can always tell when someone is from out of town because they're looking up."
Jerri chooses walking as her main means of transportation and finds herself still pausing to admire the architecture she has not yet discovered.
Jerri's passion for preservation extends beyond her home. She played a significant role in the restoration of the trolley station, a project that held deep personal meaning for her. "Bill Dyze restored it once, and I knew about it because of him," she recalls. "I restore it now as a way to honor him." With the help of Ausherman Painting and Sherman Williams, who provided the paint and a color specialist, the station was brought back to life. Jerri takes pride in changing the wreath on it seasonally, adding her personal touch to the community.
"Downtown was a lot quieter eight years ago," Jerri reflects. "There were fewer businesses, fewer people. But it's come a long way." She's watched the area transform into a bustling hub of creativity and commerce, with metal sculptures and local artists contributing to the town's unique charm. "York is so talented," she says with admiration. "We need to shout it to the world.”
Jerri's love for the arts led her to become friends with local artists like Brenda Wintermyer and Peter Danko, just to name a few. Her appreciation for York's culinary scene is just as enthusiastic. From the convenience of Prince Street Café to the seafood at Rockfish and the Italian dishes at Iron Horse, Jerri tries to visit all the
restaurants and coffee shops downtown. About Iron Horse, "They treat me like I’m their grandmother," she laughs. "They help me get my groceries out of the car. They threw me a birthday party last year. It’s like family."
Public transportation is another aspect of downtown life that Jerri values, particularly the free bus services for seniors. As for recruiting her friends to dwell in the city like her, "I tell everybody to come downtown!”
Every week, Jerri makes a point to visit Central Market for groceries and enjoys the Cherry Lane Box Lunch Revue in the summer. Despite her lively schedule, Jerri finds time for spiritual practices. A follower of the teachings of Buddha, she meditates each morning in her chair, facing the south side of the city as the sun rises. "It brings me peace."
Jerri’s life is a beautiful blend of the past and present, of community and solitude. She embodies the spirit of Downtown York-- evolving, gracious, and deeply connected to the people and places around her. As we concluded our afternoon, it was clear that for Jerri Worley, dwelling in Downtown York is not just about where she lives but how she lives.

The creation of Our Sons & Daughters and how a BLOOM Loan is taking the business to the next level
Cresha and Phil Drayden, owners of the world-famous Our Sons & Daughters, started their business in 2019 with the encouragement of their children, who were the reason Cresha started creating natural products in the first place. To help with her daughter’s eczema and as a creative homeschooling activity, Cresha began experimenting with recipes using all-natural ingredients for soaps and oils. These products ended up working so well, that her children encouraged her to start selling her products to other friends and family. With rave reviews and a growing crowd of supporters, it was then that Cresha and Phil decided to open their stand in Central Market.
Since the opening of their stand, they’ve added products including hair oil, sea moss, and many other natural personal care products. “We’ve always been into natural products, but we found it hard to find certain things. As I started mixing, it was really fun and calming, and I started trying to make new things when I couldn’t find them elsewhere,” says Cresha.
They credit much of their success and continued growth to their supportive customers, “There’s no better feeling than when a regular customer comes back and brings their friends or family to shop,” shared Phil. “Being in the community and our products being trusted is a beautiful feeling.”
To further support their goal of becoming a household name in York, Cresha and Phil recently applied for and received a loan through the York County Economic Alliance’s BLOOM Business Empowerment Center
With the wrap-around support and interest rates starting at 4.25% this quarter, they shared that the loan will make a big difference in their business. This increased access to capital allowed Cresha and Phil to upgrade their production equipment, launch their website, expand their on-hand inventory, and launch a new product line this fall, featuring items such as teas, herbal remedies, and much more.
Be sure to stop by Our Sons & Daughters to check out their newest product line and all-natural bath and body items on Central Market Days (Tuesday & Thursday 10 am-2 pm and Saturday 9 am-2 pm).

Planting Ro s in the Market District
Kathryn Gemmill’s House of Flowers offers a local hub for plant enthusiasts and a sense of community
BY DAVID GONZALEZ, JR. DIRECTOR, ECONOMIC INITIATIVES
Kathryn Gemmill, owner of House of Flowers, is a plant hobbyist turned business owner after she decided to make a change from her career in outside sales. A resident of West York, she admits even though she lived near York City she wasn’t aware of the businesses throughout the downtown or more specifically along Beaver Street where her business now operates. “I’ve always lived in the county and concluded that we were missing this kind of shop in the area. Since opening, I have felt completely welcomed by my fellow merchants and the overall community,” says Kathryn.
The business is much more than a plant shop, it is a vessel to get people excited about plants and create a community around it. She sees an opportunity in helping to break the mold of those who are interested in plants and shares her passion for breaking barriers for individuals of all demographics to get into planting. Gemmill notes “We offer a bit of everything, tropicals, rare plants, bonsai, succulents, carnivorous, bamboo, hydroponic plants, and much more.”
Many individuals walk into House of Flowers after frequenting other businesses in the market district or are even hopping off the Heritage Rail Trail to see her space, as she is a Trail-Friendly Business offering restroom access and bicycle parking.
Beyond working your way through the wide array of plants in the store, Kathryn hosts events from Plant Parent 101 courses, for those who don’t naturally have a green thumb; plant bingo, where winners of the timeless game win a plant that they might not have been familiar with before; or offers options to host parties or fundraisers. Beyond that, House of Flowers can also create custom fresh flower arrangements and offer local delivery.
With just over a year of operation under her belt, Kathryn has a bevy of ideas on how to further grow the business “I constantly look around the shop and see opportunities to expand our offerings, but beyond that, I’m looking for additional ways to get further involved in the community and partnerships to get plants out in public spaces.”
House of Flowers has an upcoming regional opportunity coming up at Hershey Gardens, where Kathryn will decorate a living tree with curated plants as a part of their annual Christmas Tree Showcase from November 24 – January 1.
House of Flowers is welcoming to anyone of any interest level and skill set in planting. Kathryn often shares that plants offer a bit of something for everyone, expressing that “I’m bringing in plants you can’t purchase just anywhere and I hope to be both the go-to provider for plants, but the person anyone can come to with questions. If you have a question on how to care for a plant, bring it in and we’ll go over it together – I’m happy to share my knowledge and propagate my passion.”
“I’m happy to share my knowledge and propagate my pa i .”
GHOST TOURS ILLUMINATING YORK’S HIDDEN STORIES
Rissa Miller blends investigative research with ghostly tales to reveal the rich history of Downtown York
“GHOST STORIES DON’T ONLY PUT A FACE ON HISTORY, THEY MAKE DEATH APPROACHABLE. IT’S NOT SCARY, IT’S HUMAN.”
Since 2022, Rissa Miller has led Ghost Tours of Downtown York featuring the stories of individuals who lived, died, and remain in our community. A native of York, Rissa had her first ghostly experience in a restaurant in York, England at the age of eight.
Rissa’s professional journey as a tour guide began at the age of 15 when she started as a tour guide for Plough Tavern and the Gates House. The experience helped her to overcome childhood shyness and to develop the skills that would serve her well in a career in storytelling. Having worked as a newspaper reporter and editor for the Baltimore Sun, Rissa gained experience in investigative research. Today, she utilizes these experiences to explore the lives and stories of the ghosts who are featured in her tours.

RISSA MILLER’S FIRST GHOSTLY EXPERIENCE
While at La Piazza Antica, a restaurant in York, England she saw a sorrowfullooking young man who looked distraught. Rissa went to find her mother to help him, and upon returning to the place where she had seen the man, they found he had disappeared. Concerned that something may have happened to him, they informed the staff, whereupon the owner then related the story of Marmaduke Buckle, a ghost said to haunt the establishment. The experience helped to foster an interest that was shared by her family in paranormal activity and unexplained phenomena.
She is always on the hunt for new ghost stories. The investigative work begins once she can independently confirm a possible ghost story from at least two sources. She meets new stories with a healthy amount of skepticism, seeking first to rule out earthy causes before investigating possible paranormal experiences. If her research determines the likely presence of a ghost, she delves further into the history of the suspected haunted location to identify the ghost. She often begins her research by searching newspaper articles, obituaries, and property records accessible online and via the York
Rissa is passionate about York County’s history and the people who lived in our community. Whether or not you believe in the paranormal, the stories she tells bring history to life through the lives of York Countians and provide an opportunity to educate and engage those who participate in her tours. She says, “Ghost stories don’t only put a face on history, they make death approachable. It’s not scary, it’s human.” The stories offer a vehicle for Rissa to encourage attendees to shift their perspective and view history through the lens
LOOKING TO ATTEND A GHOST TOUR? Tours begin and end at White Rose Bar & Grill and take about two hours. Running from April to November, Rissa currently offers two tour programs, the “Haunted Downtown York Walking Tour” and a women-only “Ghouls Night Out.” The tours are pet-friendly. A full schedule of events is available on her Facebook page and at hauntedpa.online.
