They mention that the planned medical corridor extends from St. Dominic's at Lakeland Drive all the way to the Jackson Medical Mall on Woodrow Wilson Avenue, which makes me think UMMC is still eyeing to have Veterans Memorial Stadium demolished!

No doubt they do. That land is gold for UMC.

I absolutely LOVE the Meridian sign on the side of the building! I truly cannot wait for this.

I love how the building gives the area more of an urbane feel.

I'm in awe at how gorgeous that building looks. I definitely can't wait to see it in person once construction is complete. I hope the Meridian is successful and helps to be a catalyst for similar developments in the area.

It does look to be a gorgeous building, and will be even more gorgeous once finished. With the Meridian and the District at Eastover being practically around the corner from each other, these can be catalysts for more to come. I do believe, however, that pre-leasing will be critical. There's not much empty space to develop in Fondren except for the former apartment complex on Northview that sticks out like a sore thumb. I don't if that would be suitable for mixed-use since it's so close to a residential area, but definitely ideal for a high-end apartment complex, condo or townhouse complex. Maybe a combination of them all.

Exciting news. Pleased there will be more options for decent living in Jackson. Those moving in from out of state to work or go to school deserve it.
