Building planned next to Slugger Field

An $11 million, seven-floor building with space for retailing, offices and four large condominiums will be constructed at Preston and Main streets, just west of Louisville Slugger Field. The developer, PM Partners LLC, plans to begin construction next month and complete the project in about a year. It will have about 85,000 square feet of space, plus four 2,500-square-foot condos. Although several old buildings have been renovated along East Main under Armstrong's eMain program, this will be the first major new construction

Waterfront Park featured in magazine

Waterfront Park is featured in a nine-page article in the July issue of Landscape Architecture magazine.  The article, which includes numerous color photos of the park, focuses on how George Hargreaves, a San Francisco designer, developed his scheme for the park's master plan.  It also discusses the river's history and its importance to Louisville and how the park has spurred new downtown development.

Glassworks art studio to open next month

Glassworks art studio, 815 W. Market St., will open to the public on Aug. 20. A multiuse facility that includes retail, commercial and residential space, Glassworks was developed to house up to 50 glass artists working in areas such as glass blowing, flameworking and architectural glass design. The facility will feature a hot glass studio housing three resident artists, Greg Fleischaker, Mark Payton and Brook White, and will feature their work as well as the work of other artists. It is the first facility of its kind in the region.

Waterfront agency to sell naming rights for expansion

Turning to a fund-raising technique that has helped build athletic arenas across the country, the Waterfront Development Corp. intends to sell naming rights to raise money for the $40 million expansion of Waterfront Park. Decisions on who gets to name what, and for how much, will be left to the agency's board of directors. But under guidelines adopted by the agency's directors last week, corporations or individuals who give at least $1 million will be eligible to get their name on features such as the ''Little Lawn,'' an amphitheater or playground planned in the park's second phase.
