Description
State of Development Luncheon – September 16th at Black Woods Event Center in Proctor
Join us for an exclusive look at one of the region’s most transformative projects in decades. Developer Beth Wentzlaff (CMRA) will share the bold vision behind Nexus, a $100+ million, multi-phase development that will reshape Proctor’s southern edge. With plans for 360 housing units, a massive indoor sports dome, hotel, grocery store, restaurants, child care, and more — this project marks the city’s first major growth since the 1940s. Discover what’s next for our community and how it could impact business, housing, tourism, and regional vitality.
