The organization that has helped make Midtown neighborhoods Meridian-Kessler, Butler-Tarkington, Mapleton-Fall Creek, and Broad Ripple Village more walkable, bikeable and beautiful and whose mission is to promote local business, attractions, and economic development recently hired Michael McKillip to helm the ship.

I am excited to join the Midtown organization. I look forward to working with the stakeholders throughout Midtown and the city."
