Good ole' Obamacare. Thanks liberals and those who didn't bother to vote.

Yes. Blame those who were too lazy to go vote Obama out and those who voted him in again. That's my take on it. I know folks won't get it on the left. OK. Start berating me now!

Serioulsy, people are AGINST this project? Most communities would be salivating over a project like this. You'd rather have an empty eye-sore gas station and shacks posing as apartments? This project is exactly what BR needs. BUILD IT MR MAYOR. And yes, I am a BR resident, and have been for 20 years.

As a St. Vincent employee of over 20 years, I am saddened and disheartened by this announcement. Unfortunately, as the healthcare "industry" continues on this political and corporate path, all that St. Vincent Hospital has stood for spiritually for its employees and this community is being sucked dry. I know it truly has no choice. It is not just Obamacare or just competition or just any single thing. This trend started long before I was even born when the government became involved in healthcare and it became an "industry." I grieve for those who will lose their jobs, one of whom may be me, but I also grieve for this hospital which I have served for over 20 years. May God give us and it the grace to withstand the future of healthcare.

Why do people constantly harp on this issue and act ignorant about what a city population measures? A city's population is the city's population. There is no argument or debate about it. If you want to measure the density of a city--measure it. If you want to measure the size of a metropolitan area, then measure the metropolitan population. City boundaries cover different sized areas--and they always have (though the disparity has probably increased since about 1900 or so when more cities began annexing their surrounding communities). For example, San Francisco only covers 49 square miles while Houston cover nearly 600 square miles. No one argues about the population rankings of either city even though they clearly cover extremely different sized areas. Indianapolis is the 13 largest city by population in the U.S. That is a fact. While the population of a metropolitan area may give you a better sense of how large a community is, as noted, even metro areas can vary widely in the size of geographic area they cover--so that is not a perfect comparison either.

It's a great place with a huge selection of teas.
I've heard Fresh Market, Stein Mart, a Bookstore, and a few Restaurants, but anything set outside of the anchor stores?
Also, what's the deal with the stalled Arbor Village at 116th & Hoosier. They did everything, but put a building on it. 9 months of dirtwork, laid the road beds, raised the level of the ground to overlook the soccer fields, gave them curb cuts along the street and median, added a pond and parking lot... but, never began constructing the buildings.
Funds dry up or just delayed?
Alas, another local retailer gobbled up by gomers in bad oxford shirts and stained clip on ties. Has to be Mayor Ballard's fault.
At 116th and Cumberland they are building a LA Fitness, I don't know about the other stuff.
At 116th and Hoosier Rd. it has been waiting on tenants. Because of the high architectural details of the center I imagine price per sq. is pretty high. They were talking to some usual suspect nail, cleaners,etc, as well as a nice upscale restaurant. There was an article in the Star not too long ago about it.
Ah, ode to Ko:) One of a kind. She will be missed. So, Da Hooey, I lost you....the old “Ferguson’s Express†plumbing store on 62nd
Where's that? Thanks!
I am sure they could find a broad ripple location.
That, plus the quality of their food has gone WAY down.
I am hoping that Poopies comment was just idle commentary and not official news.
Appreciate the heads up.
Mr. 21st Amend bought out K.O.'s for a lofty sum and and then bought the building where the Ferguson Plumbing was because they do not rent. Must be nice. Now they are trying to put the Cork n Cracker out of business which is directly across the street with their new Wine Shop idea since Mr 21st Amend evidently does't care for the owner of C n C.
I love greed, Mr 21st Amend is a total douche.
Ted Fleischaker just reported in his latest UpDowntown that is seemed to be dead. Glad he was wrong!
For those who have not been, Cork and Cracker features surprisingly affordable wines, and the owners are so helpful and not at all pretentious. Don't be scared, they are friendly!
I did half my holiday shopping there last year. Please support this great local business.
soyeah, me likey some pie.
At 106th and Lantern on the westside of I-69, they have been clearing land for the last 3-4 months and apparently are going to begin building more office complexes. Great idea especially when the first building that was put up almost a year ago still appears to have zero tenants!
Has anyone heard about the large strip of land just south of 106th on Allisonville Rd? All the trees were leveled nearly 2 years ago yet the property remains a beautiful dirt lot.
I'm thrilled that construction has not started at the Riverplace project yet. Fishers has such wonderful town management when it comes to construction...sounds like the next big ticket on their agenda is redesigning the entire downtown facade. More cookie cutter houses and vacant new buildings please!
Do you know why the Olive Garden on W. 38th went out of business?
