Downtown is the most walkable area in Lexington making it one of the healthiest places to live and work, the swim and gym amenities through the years have evolved but always been present.

On and off street parking facilites add to the downtown live + work vibrancy. Most of the structured parking garages in Lexington like other cities, need public support to get built.

The space on top of the garage has transformed brands through the year but always served the downtown health conscious clientele.

YMCA of Central Kentucky is more than swim & gym creating spaces to advance your spirit, mind and body.

The Y is a fixture in downtown and proud you are staying!

Before TheWyatt, 524, 525 and the other apartments… Did you know Angliana was almost a entertainment district that would have connected to Downtown?

Earlier this year we stopped by the fountains at Palomar for the grand opening of Bank of the Bluegrass’ newest location at Harrodsburg Rd & Man O’ War.

We asked their team a simple question: what actually happens when a local deposit goes into a local bank?
Their answer: the money stays in Lexington. It gets lent out in Lexington. It funds the small businesses and real estate projects growing right here.

The bank where your money stays and gets put to work growing the community!

Kentucky’s historic preservation tax credit returns 20% of qualified rehab expenses on commercial and income producing properties; 30% on owner occupied residential. With the federal credit means on the right building you’re looking at 40% of qualified cost coming back as dollar-for-dollar credit.

Before FCPS budget comments flood in… Rise STEM Academy for Girls has been temporarily occupying the former Linlee School building that has been surplussed as new facility comes online. State requirements of acreage needed for schools make site selection difficult for schools. Facility rotation is a by new construction and surplus sales are regular parts of district plans.

The new building has been under construction since 2023. Demolishing the historic home, shed, and garage. Bricks were exported for reclamation.

Site was sold by Lexington developer who previously used the in-town farm as a residence.

Designs and property lines were discovered to be misaligned and reworking designs and on-site improvements to date of discovery posed a difficult and costly position to move through.

It takes a village.

Think your site selection assaignments are difficult? Ponder where the next school can go to replace existing facilites.
