Fireside Financial, an Edwardsville-based investment firm, is leading the development called The Station on Main, at 400-420 North Main Street. The site has been vacant since 2017 when the public safety departments relocated a half-mile south. It also was Edwardsville's first city hall when it was built in the 1890s, according to a release.  

“This is an exciting project, and we’re very hopeful that it’s just the beginning of the kind of growth we’ll see in this area,” Mayor Art Risavy said in a statement. 


The new development will feature 38 one-bedroom apartments and townhomes, four restaurants, five office spaces and five retail shops with on-site parking. A Madison County transit station also is within walking distance.
