Question of the Week: Can you provide an update on the Valleydale project?
The City of Salem is investing $50 million in a venture to transform the old Valleydale Meat Packing and Processing plant into more than 300 upscale apartments with a variety of resort-style amenities. The Valleydale property is located on the corner of Indiana and 8th streets less than a half mile from the Salem Civic Center, Kiwanis Field, and the Rotary Dog Park.
Salem, Economic Development Director, Tommy Miller, shared that demolition on the project is moving along as scheduled. Most of the exterior walls have been removed. The site permit is expected by the end of February and footers are targeted for early spring. The interior design plans and finishes are currently being finalized. The first building is scheduled to be completed by June 2024.
