Mayor's Blog
Over the course of one season…Jasper has changed so much. I hear it every day from citizens and visitors alike. In the span of two months these projects have impacted Jasper forever:
July 7 – The Parklands of Jasper opens
To say The Parklands has been well received would be
an extraordinary understatement. Taking a former
private golf course and woods and creating public space
of this magnitude has created Indiana’s Natural Destination.
August 25 – Demo of the Hoosier Desk site complete
This work sets the stage for construction of the Thyen-
Clark Cultural Center, the future home of Jasper Arts and
the Jasper Public Library.
Ongoing – River Centre
In a couple months, River Centre’s Marriott hotel is really
taking shape, work on one of the parking areas is underway
and the old Jasper Cabinet building stands ready to become
77 apartments and a commercial/retail venue.
Thank you to everyone who has helped with Jasper’s future! What a difference a day makes!
Mayor Seitz
