Midtown: The Original Place of Opportunity
The idea behind Midtown as an organization and as a place is that the community can create opportunities to invest in itself. The North Midtown Tax Increment Finance District is the primary example of that.
Prior to the Midtown TIF district's establishment in 2013, the City projected $50 million to $80 million in new investment in the TIF's first five to seven years. We now know that in its first seven years of existence, the Midtown TIF has surpassed $220 million in new investment.
