Park and Poplar To Anchor West Side of Downtown Westfield

Old Town Companies introduced plans for Park and Poplar at the City of Westfield’s council meeting on Monday evening. The project, estimated at $125 million, is a mixed-used development that will anchor the west side of downtown Westfield.

Park and Poplar, situated at the southeast corner of Park and Poplar Streets, will feature a blend of retail and office spaces, a boutique hotel, and brownstone apartments. The project will also feature a public parking garage and plaza with connectivity across the Midland Trace Trail to Park Street. This feature will enhance the pedestrian experience in downtown Westfield.

“This project will serve as a key anchor point, helping to enhance Park Street and Restaurant Row,” stated Mayor Scott Willis. “It’s important to emphasize that the current restaurants and businesses will remain and that this project will address the current parking shortages in the area. We are excited to see continued investment in our downtown.”

“Old Town Companies is proud to contribute to another place-making initiative in downtown Westfield. We believe this project will be a key component of Mayor Willis’s plan to redefine the downtown area,” stated Jeremy Lollar, Vice President of Development at Old Town Companies.

Park and Poplar was introduced to Westfield City Council on Monday, November 11. It will have a public hearing at Advisory Plan Commission (APC) on Monday, December 2. The City Council is tentatively scheduled to vote on the project on January 27, 2025.
