4.8 Continue fostering growth of Aggieville and Downtown districts.

Action Item Description
The Aggieville and Downtown business districts are considered by many as the apples of Manhattan’s eye. The City of Manhattan adopted the Aggieville Community Vision Plan (2016) and the Downtown Tomorrow Plan (2000) to identify necessary public infrastructure improvements that will stimulate continued private growth, and investment to draw visitors into these vibrant districts. Manhattan should continue implementation of these plans to promote their vision and update them when appropriate.

Status Update

Construction on both Fremont Street and the alley utilities between Laramie and Moro streets wrapped up this fall. Construction at the Midtown site remains on hold as Back 9 Development works to revise its plans for the hotel and parking garage. Design continues for 12th Street improvements that will coincide with that project when it resumes in 2025.
