Mercy Triangle Toledo Design Center
The Mercy Triangle at the western most tip of Uptown is anchored by the presence of Mercy College. The 1,100 students and the additional 1,000 employees assist in stabilizing this part of the neighborhood. The Park Lane and Executive Towers house a number of Mercy College students as well as other tenants. There is the possibility in the future that student housing may be built in the area close to campus. The 911 Call Center, NPI, Newfax, and Toledo Day Nursery are also located in this area. The Mercy Triangle is easily situated to be the gateway to Uptown coming from the Old West End and the Museum. Reconsideration is being given to constructing a modern roundabout at Collingwood Boulevard and Monroe Street. This also was recommended in the Monroe Street Redevelopment Plan but due to a lack of funding the issue was never realized. The Arts Commission shared a plan that is activating Monroe Street between the Toledo Museum of Art and the Maumee River. This is going to happen thru a series of aesthetic interruptions to engage the corridor from the Old West End neighborhood to the Warehouse District. There are some gaps in the urban fabric (i.e. buildings) along Monroe Street so this is an attempt to connect the corridor with art. This is another example of collaboration between different entities who have a similar goal to recreate and transform a major corridor in the City of Toledo.
