Understanding the Land, Unlocking Potential
West Side Analysis
EDCMC and partners are conducting a robust analysis of the West Side of Michigan City to assess the physical attributes, infrastructure, and environmental considerations of the area. This data-driven approach ensures we make informed decisions, paving the way for sustainable and impactful redevelopment.
Preserving Heritage, Embracing Progress
Existing Conditions
The Indiana State Prison site is steeped in history, yet it presents exciting opportunities for renewal. By evaluating its existing conditions—including architectural, environmental, and logistical aspects—we are laying the foundation for a re-imagination that respects the past while meeting future needs.
