The Noblesville Police Department currently shares a building with the fire administration and Station 71. They have been operating in the same building since 1992 when the population was approximately 20,000. However, Noblesville’s population has reached 75,000, and the department has more than 100 dedicated officers. The construction of a new police headquarters is a top priority in the city’s 10-year Capital Improvement Plan and has been endorsed by the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP). Following due diligence and analysis of possible sites, the former Firestone site along Division Street was selected as the best option for the new station and will address the growing needs of the Noblesville Police Department by providing sufficient space for staff and equipment. Construction is expected to begin in the second half of 2025.
Indiana Peony Festival HQ
The Indiana Peony Festival is taking a significant step forward with plans to establish a headquarters at Finch Creek Park on Noblesville’s East side. This development will enhance the festival’s presence and create a permanent home for one of the city’s most beloved annual celebrations. In 2024, the festival brought 50,000 visitors to Noblesville, a driving force behind the vibrancy and success of our downtown community.
Morse Village
This $250 million development covers approximately 175 acres, featuring 30,000 sqft of commercial space and local restaurants at 206th and Hague Road. The community will be the entry to Morse Reservoir, offering 250 high-end single-family homes, 150 townhomes and condos, and 250 multi-family homes. The development will complement the existing amenities, including Morse Reservoir, golf courses, parks, trails, and green spaces. Noblesville continues its commitment to building trails and enhancing connectivity for residents and visitors through this development.
Innovation Mile and Noblesville Event Center
Innovation Mile is a 600+ acre public/private partnership by the City of Noblesville. It is located along I-69 and is designed with a live, work, play, engage, and learn mindset. The Noblesville Event Center, which will be the future home of the Indiana Pacers G-League team, serves as the anchor of Innovation Mile. The district will feature event and entertainment spaces, retail outlets, recreational areas, residential spaces, and commercial opportunities. Surrounded by amenities such as Hamilton Town Center, Ruoff Music Center, healthcare facilities, BorgWarner, and the Indiana Joint Replacement Institute, the district is envisioned to bring forth future job opportunities. The Noblesville Event Center is scheduled to open in the Summer of 2025, and the city has proactively invested in infrastructure for the district to facilitate continued development of the area.
Designated Outdoor Refreshment Area (DORA)
The establishment of a DORA district in Noblesville’s historic downtown, approved by the Common Council in April and by the Indiana ATC in July, is already proving to be a boost to the downtown economy. The city’s collaboration with local stakeholders, including the Noblesville Police Department, has ensured that the district is enjoyed safely and responsibly by our community, visitors, and business owners. In its first month, the DORA district is off to a great start in Noblesville’s downtown, allowing patrons to sip, shop, and stroll within a safe, designated area. The historic downtown square has seen increased foot traffic, tourism, and new revenue streams for local businesses – a promising sign of what’s coming.

The Granary
In August, the Noblesville Common Council approved a $67 million mixed-use development project, The Granary, along the new Pleasant Street Corridor. This project includes a $13.4 million investment from the city and has been a priority of Mayor Jensen’s. It is part of broader efforts to enhance downtown Noblesville and ensure that the well-being of our residents is closely tied to economic and workforce growth. The Granary will revitalize the former Noblesville Milling Co. granary site, which played a significant role in the city’s milling history and inspired the “Millers” moniker for Noblesville Schools. As the first significant development along the Pleasant Street Corridor, The Granary marks a key investment in the quality of life for current and future Noblesville residents. This project will offer a new housing option, neighborhood-oriented amenities, and pedestrian-friendly connections to our growing trail system while maintaining architecture that complements our historic downtown.
Pleasant Street Phase 1 Completion
The Pleasant Street Corridor is a key component of the Reimagine Pleasant Street Project. This is a long-term initiative aimed at improving east-west connectivity and accessibility for the City of Noblesville. The project has been under study and discussion for 40 years. It is expected to greatly improve how residents and visitors navigate through and experience our city. The road design is intended to benefit Noblesville residents, local businesses, and stakeholders by enhancing mobility and public safety, while preserving the area’s urban character and historic features. This collaborative effort involves the City of Noblesville and Hamilton County, ensuring a shared vision for progress. An exciting aspect of the project is that it will connect three major trails—Nickel Plate, Midland Trace, and Riverwalk—providing a seamless connection between Noblesville, Hamilton County, and the greater Indianapolis area.
