Amazing amount of investment happening in Westfield. Some are really upset by it and the changes to what Westfield “used to be”, but it was inevitable that development would continue coming North from Carmel. Westfield has the land to build on with easy access to Rt. 31. Now if the city would somehow convince the owners of the property on the northwest corner of Rt. 31 & Rt. 32 (the old truck stop) to sell their land so a proper “Welcome to Westfield’ could be erected, it would make things look nicer all around. Build the tax base, the infrastructure Westfield needs cannot be simply strapped on the backs of homeowners alone.
I really wish Westfield would lean into the success of the restaurants and stores on Jersey and Park and avoid developments like the one in this article. If complexes like the one mentioned above continue to be developed in downtown Westfield, Park and Jersey street will be boxed in by 8 story buildings. I would love to see what rents are underwritten on the commercial spaces in this development and what tenants they have in mind. Additionally – with the future development of the Najem Steakhouse and already existing presence of Nylas and The Italian House, does Westfield need another high end restaurant within the same block? Be different Westfield…
It is great to not only see developers interested but long overdue city support. People would be amazed at what the residents, office users and parking do for the existing businesses. We welcome the growth and businesses as it only brings more people and customers downtown for everyone. This will be such a nice front door to the downtown and Grand Junction area. Keep em coming.
Development — fine. $Million dollar view(s) — questionable. Few consider the view of a freeway interchange with traffic signals strung along tacky span wires as a nice $1 view. And the awful/unsightly overhead utilities are, well, unattractive.
Westfield City Council and Mayor need to slow down. Based on the numbers above, that is over 1,000 apartments and 100,000 sq ft of retail to be leased and absorbed seemingly around the same time as each other.
And where are the residents who would be paying 2000$ plus a month to rent in the beautiful new downtown??
