LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Molina Healthcare (“Molina”) today announced the closing of its purchase of the 20-acre plot at 18th Street and Broadway in west Louisville.
“I commend Molina for listening to the people of West Louisville to ensure this new development aligns with the needs of the Kentuckians living there,” said Gov.

“We are enthusiastic about Molina Healthcare’s next steps in the long-awaited effort to bring this vacant site back into productive use with the input and needs of the community top of mind,” Mayor Fischer said. “This project is one part of a broader effort by public, private and nonprofit partners to revitalize west Louisville neighborhoods, an effort that includes major investments like the Republic Bank Foundation YMCA, the Goodwill Industries of Kentucky and Norton Healthcare Opportunity Campus, the Louisville Urban League’s Norton Sports & Learning Center, and the redevelopment of Beecher Terrace. We appreciate the commitment to west Louisville of our many partners, including Molina Healthcare.”
