PROUD INVESTORS & TRUSTEES

 

The Downtown Owensboro Placemaking Initiative presents a bold plan for the future of downtown Owensboro transforming it into a destination, source of pride, and catalyst for economic development. In 2008, the Greater Owensboro Economic Development Corp. and Downtown Development Authority retained the Gateway Planning firm from Ft. Worth, TX to complete an aggressive master plan for the community to implement.

The market-based downtown plan will result in $120 million in publicly funded infrastructure and amenities to reinvent downtown Owensboro as a walkable, mixed use urban center with the addition of a new convention center, hotel, marina, arts and cultural venues, as well as ample downtown housing.
