The Town of Vinton is expanding with several new projects including transforming the Gish Mill.

The Town of Vinton wants to build a new hotel to attract more people to its downtown area.

The town of Vinton is working towards rebuilding after a devastating fire last July.

Demolition is expected to begin early next week on properties in downtown Vinton that were affected by a devastating fire in 2022.

Vinton’s Town Manager has provided an update on the progress being made after the devastating fire downtown last summer.

VINTON, Va.- - The old Vinton Motors building has been empty for 10 years. The plan is to redevelop the site into a multitenant facility known as Vinyard Station. It's going to be very attractive and a nice complement to the existing restaurants we have in town," said Richard Peters, director of economic development and assistant town manager. Roanoke County on Tuesday agreed to give financial support to the redevelopment and several other parcels of real estate around the intersection. "The county has cooperated with the town for reimbursement of taxes of $40,000 per year of net new tax revenues generated off the development," said Jill Loope, Roanoke County economic director.
