What is Embrace Downtown?

Embrace Downtown is the beginning of a new phase of a long-discussed project to address critical infrastructure and aesthetic upgrades to preserve the downtown Noblesville area. More than 30 years have passed since the last significant downtown infrastructure upgrades were made, and Noblesville has experienced positive growth during that time. These improvements will address pressing needs while celebrating the historic nature of downtown Noblesville. The goal of this project is to enhance safety and walkability, nurture a vibrant local economy, and invest in public infrastructure for a connected, inclusive community.
