News Release
CARMEL, Ind. – Details will be released regarding a new development in the Midtown area.
The largely industrial Midtown area lies in the heart of Carmel, connecting the city's two primary focal points of redevelopment – the Arts & Design District and Carmel City Center.
The redevelopment of Midtown between these two anchors, is a key component of the city's efforts to create a walkable, pedestrian-friendly area centered along the Monon Greenway, providing the interest and activity that will encourage walking from one anchor to the other.
Bordered by Main Street to the north; City Center Drive to the south; Range Line Road to the east and areas around 3rd Ave SW, Midtown holds the potential to one day complete a continuous downtown core in Carmel with a mix of residential and commercial projects that could constitute a largely self-reliant urban environment.
