BALL STATE UNIVERSITY
Fairmount Properties is spearheading the redevelopment of The Village at Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. This ambitious project aims to transform the area into a vibrant, multi-generational district centered around arts, culture, entertainment, and innovation. Anchored by the new Ball State Performing Arts Center, the redevelopment will introduce a variety of mixed-use spaces designed to enhance the community's living, working, and recreational experiences. The project will feature a blend of residential, retail, and hospitality options, including a 95-room upscale extended-stay hotel with a rooftop bar and restaurant, offering unique dining experiences inspired by the arts. Additionally, the development will include new dining, retail, and service establishments, providing residents and visitors with diverse amenities in a dynamic environment. The Village redevelopment also emphasizes innovation and education through the creation of the Ball State Center for Innovation. This facility will house programs and resources such as the Institute for Digital Intermedia Arts, the Entrepreneurial Leadership Institute, and various career development initiatives. These programs are designed to support entrepreneurship, small business development, and industry engagement, furthering the educational and economic goals of the university and the broader community. Fairmount Properties' involvement in The Village at Ball State University represents a commitment to creating spaces that foster collaboration, creativity, and community engagement, while driving economic growth and enhancing the quality of life in Muncie.
