The 447-acre South Bend Central Development Area is located in the heart of South Bend.  This area was created in 1985 by consolidating and expanding three former redevelopment areas: the Central Business District, East Bank and Monroe Park. The area continues to be the center of much activity as new office and commercial development occur in the downtown, new light industrial businesses locate in Monroe Park, and new residential and compatible commercial businesses locate in the East Bank.
