It's also across the street from Fogo de Chao and Morton's....

Yep, the haters are trying to make good news bad. I guess it is hard to get people to believe the series is dying when they are gaining new sponsors.

David Copperfield! I remember watching his specials on TV when I was little.

Don't forget this is next to an MMA gym, a pawn shop, and some abandoned spaces.

Good project for Zionsville - A group who has owned the property for many years has waited and worked patiently to bring highest and best use development to a major corridor, and mix that in with the great downtown you have. Win Win. All the Best to Pittman Partners and Zionsville.

1. WTF did they put the IU Med place up on the 2nd floor? I mean, plenty o space on the ground floor, now its upstairs, with an unprotected walkway the only obvious way in.
2. The South Parking Lot?! Can one of you genius planner/architect types take a look at it an esplain it to me? Try going from rural to Target. :eek:
3. EMPTY. Macys is packed, Target is packed, Lowes is packed, but the other stores are empty. As in there is nothing there. Is it just the economy or is there something wrong with the design?
4. 62nd street trail. Was told this is in the works and was an arrangement that Kite made with the city. Trail meaning that a large 4 foot wide pavement path would be built along the south side of the VERY narrow and unsafe 62nd Street corridor from Allisonville to Gelendale.

:D
Putting IU Med on the second floor is making lemonade out of lemons. (Why build that much square footage?) Medical offices are places you have to go, so convenient parking by the front door isn't part of the deal. It gives the lifestyle center a regular draw, and then creates the possibility of ground-floor tenants in medical-related retail businesses such as eyeglasses, bedding, orthotics, etc.
Flat Top Grill - yes, the sign is gone, just looked there a few minutes ago. Probably a dead deal.
Brothers! IS NON SMOKING YEAAAAHHH!!!!!! The sign just went up this morning, saw it 20 minutes ago and the Grand Opening per NUVO is tomorrow, Thursday. Rest of BR better get no smoky soon.
No smoking: The new Smoking. :D
please tell us about the wonders of carmel, in!! i'm so bored here in the city!
Lotsa light, NO SMOKING and it is CLEAN.
I'm in tonight, but will stop in there Friday afternoon on my normal tour of the village.
The whole chain is closing.
THERE IS NO WHERE TO GO WATCH FOOTBALL IN BROAD RIPPLE ANYMORE WITH A LITTLE ONE IN TOW SINCE THE SMOKING BAN!!
sorry for the all-caps, I'm just really jazzed about the possibility!
I am not sure if your sarcastic but a lot is going on in Carmel. If Indy is to continue to grow and prosper in the new world economy edge cities like Carmel are a necessity and shouldnt be looked on as competion. They offer a different product obviously. As the Urbanophile has stressed we all need to bring our A games to the table and do what we do best. I am watching Speedway's redevelopment very closely and think their success will be a postive for everyone in Central Indiana just as Carmel contributes its fair share to growth and direction.
I don't remeber there being any place to watch football in Broad Ripple with a kid before the smoking ban, but I could be wrong... maybe Buffalo Wild Wings, but I thought the BR location was always 21 and over, and it was the other locations in the city that were kid-friendly.
But, if you want a kid-friendly sports grill/pub to watch football... more than likely you're going to have to venture out of BR. Not far though, like I said before all the other Buffalo Wild Wings are kid-friendly (you just can't bring them into the bar section of the place, like any other restaurant), Champs is a great place (same thing, they can't go to the bar area... but there is one just right up Keystone not far from BR) and there are some independent ones too that are kid-friendly (you just have to look for them, I can't think of any close to BR right now... the only ones that come to mind right now are in the 'burbs outside of Marion County).
They said the 38th Street and Meridian one is still open which I am glad about. I love going there on the weekends, reading the paper, having a chai tea and playing chess. I hope they don't close it, it seems to have gotten busier since the announcement.
Kids allowed until 8pm, which is fine by me. And - again - no smoking. Place looks nice. Sorry no fotos Cory, but you should stop by tomorrow for a cold 1. :lol:
Shane, Starbux on Fall Creek is one of the Magic Johnson shops and there were a number of his Starbucks slated for closing when the announcement was made. The next day his spokesperson said, in so many words, not so fast. I would imagine there is a lot going on that we aren't seeing.
Re Brother's: The ones I've visited in other cities, I would not consider to be family friendly, and I would expect it to fit right in with the bars to the west. It sounds like we'll have a lot of company there checking it out tomorrow.
Shame.
Go Colts: I cannot STAND champps! TOO many screaming kids with NOT ENOUGH parents paying attention to them. Service is terrible, food is overpriced and mediocre. We found ourselves driving to the BWW in Carmel on Sunday despite Brothers being open. Bummer.
I stopped in BWW downtown yesterday, and I'm pretty sure it was non-smoking. I was also impressed that you could see into the establishment both through the door and one of the windows. I remember many people saying it needed to be as dark as possible without the slightest flicker of natural light, yet somehow I had no trouble seeing any of the screens.
You do realize there are BWW locations closer to Broad Ripple than Carmel? One at 86th and Township and the other in Castleton. And sorry that you feel that way about Champps... I was just trying to offer up some alternatives.
