More than just a vision plan, it created the identity for the 106th & College area, established a new Indiana Main Street organization, and planted the seeds for short and long-term improvements. These include ways to support more community-oriented activities, beautification initiatives, enhanced connectivity, and guidelines for village-scaled infill development.
