As a theatrical gateway to Fort Wayne, Headwaters Junction is inspired by New Urbanism and transit oriented developments that are sweeping the country.
Quality of life is center to the Headwaters Junction concept as a cultural and historic institution that elevates the history of area neighborhoods while serving local businesses with freight commerce. Every freight car switched means keeping existing jobs and attracting new ones to Fort Wayne, creating the potential for over $100 million in investment by new business.
As host to programs that cultivate civic pride, entertainment, and education within a vivid, hands-on setting, Headwaters Junction helps close the gap in cultural tourism in Northeast Indiana, a $4.9 billion dollar industry state-wide.
Sacramento, Portland, and Santa Fe have produced incredible and successful attractions with striking similarities to Headwaters Junction, blessing their communities and hundreds of thousands of tourists each year with a new institution and traditions.
Fort Wayne can be next.
I am all for this project. My concern would be the city, everytime this city wants something, it is a fuss. This will be great, I support your projection of doing this and look forward to visiting it.
