Developed in 1996 by Dura Builders, Plantana was designed with recreational amenities in mind. The neighborhood includes a pool, tennis courts, and a basketball court, as well as a clubhouse available for resident use. A nature area within the community and access to nearby parks like Dillon Park and Cottingham Park provide additional space for outdoor activities and leisure.

The location offers convenient access to a variety of local dining and entertainment options. Residents are close to destinations like Pinheads & Alley's Alehouse, Wayback Burgers, and Yafa Golden Coffee, with Graeter’s Ice Cream also nearby for a treat. With its combination of neighborhood amenities and proximity to shopping, restaurants, and parks, Plantana offers a well-rounded living experience in a growing part of Fishers.

The eastern edge of West Fishers connects directly to downtown Fishers, bringing residents close to one of the city’s most active and fast-growing districts. This area offers a mix of established neighborhoods, parks, and convenient access to shopping, dining, and entertainment. The Nickel Plate District, located near downtown, serves as a central destination with local restaurants, boutique shops, and live performances at the Nickel Plate Amphitheater. The Nickel Plate Trail also runs through this part of the city, providing a popular route for walking, biking, and connecting with nearby neighborhoods.

To the west, West Fishers reaches the White River, offering scenic views and access to riverfront green space. A key landmark in the area is Conner Prairie, a nationally recognized living history museum that hosts interactive exhibits and annual events like the Headless Horseman and Jupiter Flights Balloon Festival. From cultural attractions and outdoor recreation to well-connected roadways and expanding amenities, West Fishers brings together many of the elements that define the broader Fishers community.
