Mayor Winnecke says City’s Future Will “Shock Youâ€
That was his message at the Southwestern Indiana Chamber of Commerce luncheon Thursday.
Business leaders from all over the Tri-State gathered at the Tropicana for the luncheon.
Mayor Winnecke’s presentations on several downtown construction projects included satellite photos, digital renderings, and drone footage of the sites.
The mayor says he believes surrounding cities and states will be blown away by what happens in Evansville over the next few years.
Some of the main projects highlighted in the presentation were the IU Medical School, the movement of the Tropicana Casino to land, and a new re-branding initiative that is still in the works.
CAPE Cuts Ribbon on Newest Renovated Home
The Community Action Program of Evansville redesigned this four bedroom home in the 200 block of Madison Avenue.
CAPE provides affordable housing for low to moderate income families in Vanderburgh, Gibson, and Posey Counties.
CAPE organizers say the house must sell in the first six months its on the market.
They say this home is another example of the continuing development near on the close east side of downtown.
I wonder if the other 8 Indiana branch IU Medical Schools were ‘shocked’ in the way that Winnecke predicts ?
Were surrounding cities and states ‘blown away’ by what happened as a result of the building of the branch campus in their towns ?
Is Evansville is a different case than these other towns ? If so, how is it ?
Does anyone in the local media ask Winnecke questions like this when he makes these statements ?
I wonder if Winnecke would say that Ford Center has ‘shocked’ the community ?
Are we going to be “shocked” at how many of Winnecke’s big campaign contributors get taxpayer funding for their pie-in-the-sky dreams?
