If successful, a redevelopment plan for the Meriden City Center will create an environment that maximizes the opportunity for new business and commercial activity while at the same time attracting a growing, diverse group of people to enjoy many of life’s activities. These include living, shopping, working, dining, entertainment, recreation, commuting, exercising and attending cultural events in a common, safe, well planned and attractive setting.

If this environment in the City Center is successful, this vitality and success will naturally grow to adjacent neighborhoods, and contribute to a higher quality of life for the residents of that area and the entire City of Meriden.
