(Michigan City, IN) - A major housing and retail development in the downtown area of Michigan City is moving forward.
500 housing units along with a grocery store are planned on Pine St. between 5th and 6th streets. Several developers were vying for the project.
During her State of the City speech Tuesday, Mayor Angie Nelson Deuitch said she will reveal the chosen developer at the end of the month.
“We’re exciting about this project. We’re estimating this to be a $300 million capital investment,” she said.
The site cleared a number of years ago is where Memorial Hospital once stood.
Deuitch also said there’s been movement on the highly anticipated high rise living and hotel facility planned along U.S. 12 near City Hall. She said fencing is going up around the site and dirt could start being moved there sometime in the near future.
