New Development for 5th & Main St in Downtown Evansville

Project Name: The Vault on Main

- Four-story apartment building

- 161 apartments

- 1 level of underground parking

- Commercial space on first floor

- Building Size: 255,699 SF

The 5th and Main development has been a long stalled project, but seems to finally be moving forward with its new developers.

Building plans have been submitted to both the Site Review Committee and the state (IDHS).
