2019 was a year of growth for Madison County, but 2020 is expected to be even bigger.
One of the biggest projects you can expect to see this year is opening in just a couple of days. This Friday, Mars Music Hall at the Von Braun Center will hold its first concert. The music hall will hold over 1,500 people. To accommodate all the out-of-towners, five new hotels are also coming to downtown.
The new Huntsville-Madison County 911 Center is expected to be complete in March. There are seven agencies in the current building, but the new one will be able to hold even more.
MidCity District will keep growing in 2020. The Wahlburgers restaurant is expected to open early this year. They are hiring right now and are starting interviews on Tuesday.
One of the other new developments is in Town Madison. We will see some very big changes soon as first pitch for the new Rocket City Trash Pandas baseball team is this year. Toyota Field is coming along nicely and will be ready for fans on opening day on April 15th.
The Rocket City’s beer drinkers will have even more options this year! The Co-Op Brewpub is coming to Huntsville’s Stovehouse this summer. The new brewpub will serve beer, spirits, and wine from four Alabama brewers.

If you are wondering when you’ll be able to chill in the lazy river of the new Margaritaville hotel. It’s still expected to break ground in Town Madison by this year.
