About Centennial Village
Centennial Village Development is a public-private partnership between the Town of Munster and CVP Partners. The purpose of the Centennial Village Development is to provide the Town of Munster with a sustainable, mixed-use, walkable community at the intersection of Calumet Avenue and 45th Street. Centennial Village will be located on the former Munster Steel site, which has been moved to Hammond through a redevelopment agreement by the Town of Munster. This redevelopment will also provide the Town of Munster the necessary land area to facilitate design and construction of the 45th Street underpass and realignment.
