Scotty's Brewhouse, the Indiana college town institution, is working on plans for new restaurants
in downtown Indianapolis, Chicago and Charlotte, N.C. The restaurant would like to locate at Pan Am Plaza, said Scotty Wise,
the founder and president. They also may consider Penn Centre. Scotty's now has four locations, in Muncie, Lafayette, Bloomington
and along 96th Street in Indianapolis. Wise is negotiating for new restaurant space in Charlotte's EpiCentre, a huge downtown
mall, and in Old Town Chicago. Talks for a downtown Indy restaurant aren't as far along because of a shortage of quality space,
Wise said.
PLUS: Heidi’s Brooklyn Deli plans to open at the northwest corner of 116th Street and Guilford Avenue in Carmel. The restaurant features sandwiches, wraps, salads and soups, along with desserts, ice cream, shakes and malts. It's the first Indiana location for the chain, which has more than 35 stores, mostly in Colorado.

Nothing I repeat nothing will be done with the Illinois Building (SE Corner of Illinois St. and Market St. ) as the owners ground lease is up in around 15 years. That means that if anyone puts any amount of money into the building (retail/restaurant/office) they will no longer have the right to it when the ground lease expires. This is why the building is sitting empty on one of the most desirable location in the city.
