Yeah, I have been up 87 a bunch of times but never thought to stop on Main.

There's not even a "downtown" in any traditional definition of the word. It's just a street called Main. They could have called it 8th Avenue (as its on the 800 block) or hell 57th Street and there wouldn't be anything different about it.

Payson has never been known for its downtown or its Main Street as much as its been the Walmart or whatever you stop at for supplies. Seems kind of a waste of time to try and revitalize it without anyone building anything there. Reminds me of the quixotic beautification projects Tempe tried in the 1990s on Apache before they wised up and dropped in light rail.
