Corby Thompson of Boomerang Development says this project has been in the works for about a year and Monday night he unveiled plans for Abbott Commons, a 98 acre development along I-69, Cyntheanne Road and 136th Street.

Thompson told the Fishers City Council Boomerang plans to invest $150 million into Abbott Commons, with town homes priced at about $325,000 and single family homes costing as much as $475,000.  Plans for the development include paths and sidewalks, and  may include sport courts, a dog park, community gardens, trail amenities, including benches, gazebos, enhanced landscaping, or a pocket park.

Development of the construction site could begin early next year if city approvals are completed.

The council heard the proposal on first reading for a a voluntary annexation and rezoning.  The project next goes to the Fishers Plan Commission for a public hearing and will return to the council, possibly as early as April, for a final vote.
