Braden Nicholson stands inside one of the newly restored buildings of Thorntown Flats, his eyes reflecting the pride he feels for what is being accomplished. Thorntown has always been a town with deep roots, full of history and charm, but it’s clear to him that the future is where the real potential lies. The transformation happening on Main Street isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about vibrancy, opportunity, and growth waiting to unfold in this small town.
“Thorntown Flats is a game-changer for Thorntown,” Braden often says when people ask him about the project. “We’re bringing something special to this town—something it’s never had before.” The once-neglected buildings will stand proudly, a mix of historic charm and modern functionality. The upper floors, Thorntown Flats’ signature loft-style apartments, offer something different in this town: urban living with a small-town heart. High ceilings, exposed brickwork, and modern finishes create a blend that attracts not only locals but people drawn to the idea of quiet living with access to modern amenities.
“The opportunity here isn’t just for residents,” Braden continues, looking out over the available retail spaces below. “Businesses can flourish here. There’s a gap that needs filling—a breakfast and coffee spot, a local brewery—something that brings people together. This town is growing, with more and more people moving in because of projects like Lilly’s investment and the LEAP district. We’re sitting in the perfect location for a business to capture that flow of new life and energy.”
Thorntown is changing in ways many haven’t yet fully realized. The small-town charm is being preserved, but its potential for growth is what excites Braden. “These storefronts could be anything. Maybe a company working with the LEAP project needs a space to meet and operate from, or perhaps a creative entrepreneur will see the potential for something entirely new, something we haven’t even imagined yet. We’ve designed the spaces to be flexible, to accommodate the vision of the people ready to build something special here.”
Thorntown is on the cusp of becoming more than just a quiet community—it’s becoming a place with real potential for growth, both for residents and businesses. Braden is here for it, and he wants others to see what he does: opportunity.

As Braden says in his elevator pitch: “Thorntown is growing, and Thorntown Flats is at the heart of that growth. Let’s build something together.”
