The owners of a nearly 40,000-square-foot office building on Indianapolis’ northeast side are facing foreclosure on a $3 million bank note.

Bank of America, as trustee for original lender Wells Fargo Bank, filed a lawsuit on March 2 in Marion Superior Court, seeking foreclosure and the appointment of a receiver for the property at 6801 Lake Plaza Drive.

The building, called Lake Plaza Office Park, is owned by Wisconsin-based Lake Plaza LLC and LeBaron Investments Lake Park LLC.

Both entered into a loan agreement with Wells Fargo on May 2, 2007, in the amount of $3 million. Including interest on the loan, the lender claims it is owed $3.1 million.

As of February, Lake Plaza and LeBaron Investments had missed nine consecutive monthly loan payments, according to court documents.

Charlotte, N.C.-based Bank of America is requesting the property, near East 71st Street and Binford Boulevard, be sold at a sheriff’s sale.

The office complex was built in 1978 and renovated in 2006. With more than 9,000 square feet available for lease, it is roughly 77-percent occupied, according to commercial listings.

Rental rates range from $10 to $13.50 per square foot.

The most recent appraisal valued the property at $2.8 million.

  1. These higher rates Co. e about only because physicians are now hospital employees. otherwise physicians couldn't charge these rates and share the windfall with the hospital. Community/rural hospitals probably not buying physicians practices and thus weren't getting the windfall anyway.

  2. The incentive for poor people to get themselves off public assistance and "no longer be poor" is even with help...they're STILL POOR! Being poor, even with some assistance, isn't all that pleasant. (I speak from experience) It's a stubborn myth that poor people, who are on public assistance, are sitting in the lap of luxury. You should try living on just those "freebies" that you mentioned and see how meager they actually are. By the way, I didn't mean you had to buy/own a puppy...just pet one. :)

  3. As near as I can tell the minority has ZERO constitutional obligation to offer a quorum to the majority. A requirement for quorum was inserted into the constitution so that tyrannical majorities could not simply shove through odious and objectionable legislation (which is exactly what they did.) By allowing a tyrannical majority to charge fines against the minority for exercising their constitutional prerogative to deny quorum the court as made a mockery of constitutional governance in the state of Indiana.

  4. The voters elected the Reps to make a vote not walk out on the vote. They had to the right to exercise their opinion and vote "no" to the bill. Let me ask you this if you walked out of your job for 5 straight weeks would you get paid? Would you even have a job to go back to? If any elected official walks out on the people they should be arrested for stealing tax dollars from the public. They were elected to do a job and not leave when the job gets stuff.

  5. I have been to several of their locations in Pennsylvania and always go in for 1 item and leave with a basket full of things. I'm very happy they decided on Indiana, now if only they would put the other store in eastside.
