COLUMBUS, Ind. – The Columbus Redevelopment Commission (CRC) earlier this week unanimously approved Phase I of a new, $40 million, two-block, mixed-use development project slated for downtown Columbus. The commission has entered into a contract with Indiana-based developer Flaherty and Collins Properties.
CRC says Phase I includes 200 market-rate apartments, an urban grocery, and 15,000 square feet of retail/restaurant space designed to expand downtown business options, plus added parking for residents, visitors, and workers.
“This project will help transform downtown Columbus, especially for residential development. Having an urban grocery easily walkable for all of downtown’s residents will help encourage even more private investment in our downtown,” stated Mayor James Lienhoop.
