Noblesville officials will host a groundbreaking ceremony on Monday, Feb. 2, to officially kick off the Embrace Downtown project. The multi-phase initiative will improve infrastructure, enhance pedestrian safety, and introduce beautification upgrades throughout downtown Noblesville.
The ceremony will feature remarks by Noblesville Mayor Chris Jensen and Noblesville Councilor Megan Wiles. The ceremony will take place at 2 p.m., Monday, Feb. 2, at Syd’s Fine Food and Spirits, 808 Logan St. The groundbreaking marks the start of construction on a long-term investment designed to create a more welcoming, accessible, and vibrant downtown for residents, visitors, and local businesses.
“Embrace Downtown represents an important step forward in preserving our historic downtown and embracing the future of our community,” said Noblesville Mayor Chris Jensen. “This project will bring critical infrastructure improvements while supporting a safe, accessible area for people to shop, dine, and spend time downtown. We look forward to the positive impact this project will have for years to come.”
The first phase of the project will focus on underground infrastructure and streetscape improvements along Logan Street between Eighth Street and Ninth Street. Construction will be phased to minimize impacts on local businesses. Phase 1A construction will begin at the intersection of Eighth Street and Logan Street.
Access to businesses will remain available throughout the construction, and detours for vehicles and pedestrians will be clearly identified. Overall construction is anticipated to be complete in November 2026, weather dependent.
