Incoming IBJ Editor Greg Andrews this week announced the appointment of Cory Schouten as managing editor.

Schouten, 31, joined IBJ as a reporter in 2006 after stints at the Sarasota Herald-Tribune and the Arizona Republic. The Indianapolis native and Indiana University graduate currently covers the real estate beat, writes the Property Lines real estate blog and appears on business news updates for Fox59, IBJ's newsgathering partner.

Schouten also serves as a member of the board of governors of the Society of American Business Editors and Writers, treasurer of the Indianapolis Press Club Foundation and an adjunct lecturer at the School of Journalism at IUPUI.

Andrews, the newspaper's managing editor since 2005, will succeed Editor Tom Harton in March. Harton announced plans to step down in March after 22 years on the job.

    What PJ said! (But I'll say it, too.) Congratulations, Cory! Good luck! And...I hope you get someone good to take over the Real Estate blog if you won't be able to continue it yourself. :-)

    Great News! Congratz Cory! This will be a great change. I hope you'll still be doing Property Lines, or hand that over to someone, that's one of my favorite blogs!

  1. Doug Henning!

  2. These guy were thugs — they grew up in freaking Haughville! Smh, sigh. If the mayor needs/wants "quality" Black Hoosiers who are NOT corrupt, give me a call — I know plenty. Land bank info here - http://www.kubepharm.com/indylandbank/IndyLandBank.html

  3. Magician and illusionist!

  4. The basic idea of nice apartments with parking and retail is a good one, but this design seems overwhelmingly big/tall for Broad Ripple. The size could be disguised a bit with lots of big trees/landscaping, but the complex is too massive to blend in easily. That section of canal between College and Westfield will also need to be upgraded on both sides. Nice apartments facing onto a nice promenade with shade trees/plantings could bring together the canal towpath/Monon recreation, the outdoor seating at existing restaurants, and this project into something that upgrades the whole area. A plan for the whole stretch makes more sense than facing nice new housing onto what looks like a ditch. Is there a plan? Does the public have input? Who pays? The apartment idea seems to be reasonable, but Whole Foods is not a good idea for appropriate retail. Besides the store being physically too big, there are already Fresh Market at 54xCollege and Whole Foods in Nora for fancy groceries. Good Earth and Kroger are within walking distance of the Shell site. There are at least 7 grocery stores within a safe bike ride. Whole Foods would add nothing but traffic congestion. This design is on the right track, but there needs to be more work done to ensure that it blends in with and enhances the existing community. A project that large will set a tone for that whole part of town. It could be a real asset, but only if done right.

  5. I did not move to Zionsville to live in Carmel. This and the subsequent developments to follow will ensure a vanilla uniformity of strip malls and apartment buildings as we seek to bring our town down to the least common denominator. We were warned before recent elections that pro-development council members would make sure their friends (landowners and developers) would be able to make their millions off of the exploitation of Zionsville. Why in God's name would we sell out the best preserved small town in the State of Indiana?
