Mayor Mike Lockhart stated the new city-owned development located at Sportsplex Dr., “has been in the works for over two years”. The space will include indoor and outdoor facilities capable of hosting large regional tournaments.
Major retail development is central to the concept of the site. Plans include for significant retail space to be built out as the site develops.
The project is expected to cost $65 million, and engineering and design work will begin immediately. The architecture and engineering firm Goodwyn Mills and Cawood (GMC) will assist with development of the site. The City of Muscle Shoals also worked with GMC in 2023 to develop the city’s first comprehensive master plan.
