Just because someone supports the project, they are a PR shill for the developer? Myself and everyone I know has no connection whatsoever to any developer. We just want Broad Ripple to move forward and develop, not stay stagnant.
And the failure on the part of Indiana GOP to allow an expansion of Medicaid had nothing to do with Indiana hospitals' financial woes?
It would have been nice if they could have arranged for at least some of Zaxby's menu to be sold at the concession stands as part of the marketing campaign.
Get the feeling Browning has some PR presence on the message board this morning. I don't know a single person in the neighborhood who supports this project.
Grew up in Warfleigh, which is the neighborhood directly across College from the proposed development. I am against the proposed project for several reasons: 1) Traffic Flow -- College is already a mess, especially with the new lane guidance which makes the southbound left lane 'turn only' at Broad Ripple Ave. Not to mention the backups at 64th and College. If this is in fact a Whole Foods, I would expect a steady stream of cars pulling in and out, either off College or 64th Street which are both bad already. 2) Use of TIF funds. I though TIF funds were for under-developed areas, to help bolster property tax rolls for the city. I agree with Barth that this area will do just fine letting market forces dictate what is developed. 3) Specialty Grocer Overkill. There is already a Fresh Market a mile south and a Whole Foods 2 miles north. This store is not needed. Frankly I shocked that the Whole Foods site selection criteria supports a store right here 4) Hurts the Character of the Neighborhood. This type of development, along with the (hideous) parking garage down the street are out of character with the history and fabric of this area. Broad Ripple has succeeded because it was quirky and different. It would be a shame if the city gets involved and helps support ANOTHER project that aims to turn Broad Ripple into some kind of manufactured urban center.
