Westside, West Midtown, Upper Westside – these are the new monikers you’ll be seeing more of as the former industrial area continues to transform into Intown’s hippest new area to live, work and play. Here’s a roundup of some of the projects underway, including apartments, townhomes and mixed-use developments.
