NAPA, Calif. (PRWEB) April 28, 2023 -- The 1st Street Crush announces the launch of its new newspaper, which is dedicated to highlighting the top local spots in downtown Napa, CA. Our stories celebrate the town’s people, places, and palates and captures the essence of our community. The biannual newspaper showcases everything happening in the community, from its remarkable cuisine scene of restaurants and wine-tasting rooms to fashion trends and shopping, music venues, local history, wine grower focused stories and special events.
“We noticed a vacuum of uplifting stories at the street level about our favorite town, Napa. Whether you’re a local or a traveler from across the world, the 1st Street Crush is a resource and concierge dedicated to demystifying the experience of downtown Napa and frankly Napa at large," says Max Wise, publisher.

The city offers locals and visitors so much to see, do, taste and experience – Napa is a thrilling, concentrated, compact wonderland for the senses.
