When the wrecking ball came down on the Econo Lodge motel on Oxmoor Road off Interstate 65 in West Homewood, it marked a new chapter for nearby residents. An ongoing redevelopment is transforming the neglected property into a mixed-use space that will feature housing, restaurants and retail.

Construction of the $32.5 million, 98,000-sq.-ft. project began this spring, and should be completed by the first half of 2025.
