Stay up to date on progress & impact.

Where to Park

Get ready for a breath of fresh air, because the Renew Jordan Creek project is underway! We’re talking more green space, sparkling creek views & a whole lotta “wow” for our little corner of the world.

But before we can all daydream creekside, we’ll have some changes to parking as construction impacts our area.

We’ve got you & your guests covered, though.

Latest Update

  • Portions of Phelps Street between Main and  Jefferson will be closed, temporarily, during communications utility work.   
  • Some lighting along Boonville Avenue (between Water and Mill Streets) and Water Street (between Boonville and Campbell Avenues) will be removed or de-energized during demolition. Streetlights on the north side of Mill and pedestrian lights on the west side of Campbell will remain active.  

Construction Timeline:

Phase 1 of the daylighting effort will construct a new open, naturalized channel along approximately 1,000 linear feet of Jordan Creek and will restore adjacent land as green space with native riparian plantings.
