Cummins Inc. plans to build a four-story, 100,000-square-foot building as part of a revitalization of the
old Commons Mall in Columbus. The project calls for demolishing much of the mall and replacing it with a new hotel, conference
center and additional retail space. Indianapolis-based Dora Brothers Hospitality Corp. has nearly finished a new Hotel Indigo
in the complex and also will build the new building for Cummins (shown here). Cummins is adding 500 employees to its roster
of more than 5,000. The project was designed by Boston-based Koetter Kim & Associates and locally based CSO. What do you think?

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.

Thanks for giving Columbus a little pub. It's kind of different working down here. On the one hand, there is some fantastic architecture. On the other, you're definitely still in Southern Indiana.
Situated almost perfectly mid-way between Indy and Louisville, you could almost see people living in Columbus and commuting to either city. And trust me, an hour of driving 75 on open highway is a heckuva lot better than sitting for an hour in gridlock.
But for all the expansion in this city (there's actually a thriving housing market here, fancy that), there is distinct lack of quality eating establishments. Texas Roadhouse is seriously considered as a good night out.
So if there are any restaurateurs looking to start up a new business, or expand a small local chain, please consider Columbus. I'm tired of eating at a NASCAR-themed diner for lunch every day!
I commuted to Columbus from Indy for a year or two. It wasn't too bad a drive, but that was a long time ago.
Would LOVE to get a Yats in downtown!
Admittedly I don't know their financial situation at all, but it almost seems as if they are expanding a little overaggressively. I don't want them having to close down shops a la Dick's Bodacious BBQ.
