PART 5: CRITICAL CORRIDORS AND SUBAREAS
OLD MERIDIAN SUBAREA
Description
The Old Meridian Subarea has been identified as a critic:2
district because it:
Is experiencing increased de% elopment pressure;
Has a wide mix of land uses corning together in a small
area;
Has a significant portion of the land left undeveloped or
underdeveloped;
Is made up of a few permanent uses (e.g. Street Vincent's
Cannel Hospital and Carmel Middle School) which
require some sensitivity;
Has a si gnificant demand for businesses to serve the
corporate corridor along U.S. 31; and
Lacks a cohesive theme and unifying features.
The City of Cannel conducted a thorough market study of
the Old Meridian Subarea followed by a detailed physical
study (Old Meridian Task Force Report) The result of both
efforts was a vision, physical development plan. and land
use concept for the district.
The City has already improved Old Meridian Street into a
four -lane boulevard with roundabouts at critical locations.
The street improvements include a new landscaped median,
curbs, and sidewalks.
Critical Area Boundaries
The Old Meridian Subarea boundaries are depicted on the
Orientation Map on page 96.
Strategy
Old Meridian Street Boulevard: The City of Cannel upgraded
Old Meridian Street into a boulevard with roundabouts at
Pennsylvania Street, Grand Boulevard and Main Street. This
project sets the character for the district, enhances bicycle
and pedestrian access, and mitigates traffic.
Grand Boulevard and other Radial Boulevards: The City will build
Grand Boulevard and other secondary boulevards in the
locations depicted on the Old Meridian Subarea Plan. These
radial boulevards will offer park -like medians to support
bicycling and walking access to the Village area. They will
also provide cross- circulation for vehicles and high quality
settings for new development.
Secondary Street Network: As development occurs. second-
ary streets will need to be installed as depicted on the
Old Meridian Subarea Plan. These streets are intended to
provide additional connectivity instead of dead -end drive-
ways serving a single de%elopment. They also provide an
opportunity for buildings to face public streets with parking
in the rear of the property.
92 CITY OF CAP.MEL. INDIANA
Townhouse and Multiple- family Uses: The Old Meridian Subarea
Plan envisions both upscale and more moderate units within
townhouses and multiple- family developments. These
residential developments a; e intended to be located along the
new boulevards.
Office Development: Outside the central retail and residential
areas, new office development is anticipated on the south
end of the subarea. This office development is intended to
be two to five stories mostly fronting on Old Meridian Streeo.
Mixed Medical Development: The area north of Main Street
and south of St. Vincent's Carmel Hospital is intended to
facilitate the development, expansion, and modernization of
a major hospital complex or campus. It is also intended to
include mixed uses that v ill support such a campus, includ-
ing retail, restaurants, services, rehabilitation, and fitness
facilities.
Mixed Use Village: The Old Meridian Village is intended to
be a concentrated mixed -use development with upper -floor
residential units. The Village will be a walkable atmosphere
and will offer cafes and entertainment for residents and
employees of nearby developments. Establishing a critical
mass of retail uses is essential.
District Character: The City of Carmel will encourage an urban
character similar to an old- fashioned village or Main Street.
