BLOOMINGTON – The City of Bloomington will host a public meeting on Tuesday, October 27, from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. at Bloomington First Church of the Nazarene, 700 W. Howe Street. The meeting will update residents on the redevelopment of the former IU Health Bloomington Hospital site and several related projects underway in the surrounding area. This meeting is open to the public and will conclude with time for questions from attendees.
Residents will hear updates on:
- Hopewell South, the first City-led residential phase, where plans call for 98 homes along new streets, lanes, sidewalks, and other neighborhood infrastructure;
- Hopewell Commons, including park improvements, public art, and nearby roadway work;
- the proposed reuse of 714 S. Rogers Street as a public safety facility;
- Second Street improvements, including bicycle, pedestrian, transit, signal, stormwater, lighting, and accessibility upgrades; and
- a brief update on Opportunity Zones and what the designation could mean for future investment in the area.
The meeting will also be available through Community Access Television Services (CATS), with a recording available afterward, at catstv.net.
Residents interested in purchasing a home at Hopewell South, following the project, or receiving future updates can complete the City’s Hopewell interest form.
