Mayor, Congresswoman to welcome newest ‘old’ resident to revitalized south side community
Woman returns to site of former run-down apartment complex; will witness area’s rebirth
INDIANAPOLIS - Lavonne Jones witnessed the decline of Brokenburr Trails. As a resident of the troubled apartments, she was there as the complex slipped into a dilapidated, neighborhood eyesore. She will now have a front row seat to witness the community’s rebirth.
Mayor Bart Peterson and U.S. Congresswoman Julia Carson will join developers, residents and community leaders in welcoming Lavonne as the newest resident of Red Maple Grove, the ongoing multi-phased residential and commercial development that will revitalize the area where Brokenburr Trails once stood.
WHEN: TODAY, Tues., Feb. 21
1:30 - 2 p.m.
WHERE: Red Maple Grove (southwest corner of Perkins and Raymond St.)
Today’s event will mark the opening of Red Maple Grove’s first 40 affordable apartment units. Upon completion of all four phases, Red Maple Grove will encompass more than 200 quality, affordable housing opportunities and include 10,000 square feet of retail space.
