Harrison Square $50 million in bonds pass Fort Wayne City Council

By Benjamin Lanka, The Journal Gazette

Despite months of public discourse and discussion on the Harrison Square project, the support of the Fort Wayne City Council remained.

The council voted 6-3 Tuesday to approve a $50 million bond to finance the $120 million public-private development, which includes a Courtyard by Marriott hotel with parking garage, condominiums, retail shops and a city-owned $30 million baseball stadium. No council member changed his stance from a 6-3 vote taken on the project in April before many details were revealed.
