It’s no secret that Fort Wayne is HOT. We’ve let you know why Real Estate is hot here in town, but here are some contributing commercial developments helping to make Fort Wayne great.

The Riverfront

Fort Wayne has recently been working on a construction project downtown near the riverfront. This space includes Promenade Park, an amphitheater, and public recreational space along one of the city’s three intersecting rivers. Another addition that will be coming to this newly developed space is a building called The Riverfront at Promenade Park.The Riverfront will include a parking garage, apartments and townhomes, as well as retail and office space. The construction of this project began in February 2021 and is expected to be completed by 2023, offering plenty of new space that draws attention to the riverfront and makes it even easier to access.

The Bradley

A new hotel is coming to Fort Wayne. This unique space was designed in partnership with one of Vera Bradley’s cofounders, Barbara Bradley Baekgaard. Fort Wayne is the proud birth city of Vera Bradley Designs, so this makes it the perfect place to create a Vera Bradley inspired hotel.Each room in The Bradley contains materials with bright and colorful designs, offering a pleasant, upscale experience. A huge benefit of the hotel is that it is only a short walk away from many of Fort Wayne’s famous attractions including The Embassy, the Botanical Gardens, the Fort Wayne Museum of Art, Parkview Field, and more. The project has recently been completed and opened up to the public in the middle of June.

Expansions near the Clyde Theater

The Clyde Theatre, near Foster Park, has recently become a hot-spot for entertainment and night life around Fort Wayne. The theater was originally established in 1951, but it eventually its use was discontinued and abandoned after spending a short period of time as a house of worship. When Sweetwater Sound began a modern renovation, the building was returned to its original purpose as a popular source of live music and other entertaining performances.Its successful redevelopment has drawn people in and inspired the creation of two new attractions: The Club Room at The Clyde and Crescendo Coffee And More. The Club Room is a restaurant that provides a fun atmosphere with live music. Crescendo Coffee And More offers fresh pastries, sandwiches, and other foods along with its freshly brewed drinks. Both attractions were installed as a part of the Clyde Theatre after seeing the potential that the area had.
