Discover Canton
The City of Canton – Home to the Pro Football Hall of Fame - is undergoing several development projects. Most notably, the Hall of Fame Village! The $1 billion project includes new performance fields, stadium, performance stage, wellness building, hotel, and indoor sports arena. Planned projects for 2020-2027 include the McKinley Grand Hotel renovation, Centennial Plaza (to be completed by September 2020 for the NFL 100-year Anniversary), Renkert Building (mixed use), and Hercules (mixed use) Phase II. From 2000-2019, development projects totaled $189,750,000.
Downtown Canton offers many options for upscale living – Onesto (44 units), Bliss (60 units), Hercules (90 units), and the McKinley Lofts (6 units). The city has also launched its 12-block, downtown Innovation District in 2019. The district offers new businesses free wireless internet through Canton’s Agile Networks and works with partners such as JumpStart Inc. to help companies grow.
Lastly, the Canton City Council has passed the amended Community Reinvestment Area (CRA) legislation on July 29, 2019, and it has officially been approved and certified by the State of Ohio. This legislation amended Canton's previous CRA to be city-wide and to offer an enticing residential real property abatement for qualifying projects and property owners. Entities or individuals that own property within the City of Canton could qualify for a 15-year, 100% abatement on real property.
