Born from Brantley Security Services, an event management, and private security services company tracing its roots back to 1930, Block by Block began serving our first downtown district, Louisville Downtown Partnership, in 1995.

Through word of mouth, we found ourselves taking on new cities, including Cincinnati, OH, and Nashville, TN. Block by Block was created as we started serving our fifth district. This came at the same time as people were beginning to buzz about spending more time in their downtown areas, and in many cases, living in the city center.

At this time, we recognized the broader need for a company specializing in the unique needs of business districts and began expanding beyond traditional clean & safe services. We brought an understanding of how valuable customer service and personal interactions are in how people feel about their overall experience downtown.
