If you could name one thing that would dramatically increase tourism
dollars and provide employment opportunities into the Winona Downtown
area what would that be?

A Riverboat Casino 

Throw out an idea--

Having been involved in more than a few city planning efforts I can pass
along a nugget I picked up at a conference a few years back.  A woman
presented a session on her specialty  - redevelopment of downtowns in
smaller towns - and said there are always negative naysayers and crabby
pessimists in every town.  Her solution? Ignore them.  Surround yourself
only with those people who have a positive attitude and optimistic
viewpoint.  Negative people can always find a reason things can't be
done.
Positive people will always find a they can be done.
