The Lowdown on DELO

DELO, or Downtown East Louisville, is an urban infill project on the site of an old concrete batch plant, adjacent to the train tracks between Griffith and South Streets.

244 townhouses and condos are planned within the development, as well as 15,000 sqft of commercial and office space.  The atmosphere is intended to be open and balanced, with pedestrians, bicycles, cars, retailers, residents and renters all sharing the same space with walkability to downtown's restaurants and shops.

The site was originally going to include a FasTracks train station, which may remain as part of the final plan in the hopes that future decades may still bring the commuter rail through DELO.

The developers promise to feature green and/or LEED construction standards and recycled materials whenever possible.  The preliminary plans have been submitted to the city, who could give final approval as early as April for a May start.

Residents of Louisville have voiced concerns over the impact DELO and other potential developments will have on the city, specifically on enrollment at Louisville Elementary and Middle School.  Discussion over short- and long-term options for rapid growth included continued restrictions on open enrollment, portable classrooms and even boundary changes.  For more specifics, click HERE for recent City Council meeting summaries and minutes.
