September 2, 2014 - The Envision Fort Wayne Center, 916 S. Calhoun St., is now open four days a week instead of three. Residents are invited to stop in the Envision Center Tuesdays through Fridays, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The new hours provide more access over the lunch hour, when the center has been the busiest. Residents may also make an appointment to visit the center at another time by calling 311; they may also schedule time to hold a club or neighborhood meeting in the center. In addition to the regular hours, the center will also be open during Visit Fort Wayne’s “Be a Tourist in Your Own Hometown,” Sunday, September 7, 2014, from noon-5 p.m.
Riverfront proposals recently presented by the City’s consultants are currently displayed at the Envision Center. Residents can examine the proposals and provide feedback to City staff. Conceptual renderings completed by architecture interns are also available to see at the center.
The Envision Center is a downtown storefront that provides citizens with ways to learn about and contribute to community projects such as Riverfront Fort Wayne and the Downtown 2020 Update. A grant from the Knight Foundation is covering the costs for the rent, utilities, furnishings and equipment at the center.
