In Porter County, the town of Chesterton and Duneland Chamber of Commerce invite the public to a ceremony Friday, June 13, 2025, at 9 AM to celebrate the opening of new public parking in the downtown district. The project includes two newly constructed parking lots: a 60-space lot in the 100 block of Grant Avenue and a 51-space lot in the 100 block of East Indiana Avenue. “This project represents a significant investment in the continued vitality of our downtown district—providing much-needed, accessible parking for residents, visitors, and patrons of our local businesses,” said Erin Collins, Chesterton Town Council Vice-President. “These new lots will make it easier for people to visit and support our shops, restaurants, and small businesses, and they’ll serve as a vital asset during our many cherished community events, from the European market, to Third Fridays and beyond. With this improvement, we’re not only making downtown more accessible—we’re helping it thrive.” For more information, visit www.dunelandchamber.org .
