Michigan City’s momentum and current and future developments took center stage during the city’s Developer Day tours and reception.

More than 50 developers, investors and prospective business leaders from the Northwest Indiana region, Indianapolis, Chicagoland and Southwest Michigan traveled along 20 spots during the bus tour, including areas that are under construction or in pre-development.

A Franklin Street walk-through stopped at a variety of retail locations to spotlight the vibrancy of Michigan City’s downtown and spur ideas for future investment opportunities, said EDCMC Executive Director Clarence L. Hulse.

“Our Developer Day is a vital avenue for keeping Michigan City in the future development conversation,” Hulse said. “We are looking forward to our city’s next steps and are honored to highlight how our city is not only open for business but also ready to do business.”

The evening reception at Vita Del Lago united the developers and investors with local business and community leaders.

“Our team is thankful for the opportunity to showcase our city alongside Mayor Angie, the Redevelopment Commission, Michigan City Chamber of Commerce and our city’s leadership team,” Hulse said.
