Work on the renovation of Jefferson Plaza (soon to be Allen Plaza) began this week as construction workers
raised an Allen Commercial Group flag over the plaza. It replaces a worn-out state flag. Scotty's Brewhouse likely will move
into the first floor of the building. And Allen Group eventually is expected to move its headquarters into the building. The
$12-million renovation project also calls for 30 new condos and office space. That whole block is changing dramatically. There
also are projects at the Broadbent Building and the former Junior
Achievement Building. As for Allen Plaza, there's no word yet on whether the Thomas Jefferson profile sign facing Delaware
Street will be replaced with the likeness of J. Greg Allen.

Larry - even though the race is on ABC, ESPN does all of the work, so that is why ESPN is mentioned. Most sports on ABC are called something like "ESPN on ABC."

My oldest daughter graduated from IU with a Secondary Education degree. She graduated with honors and spent 3 years trying to find a teaching job in Indiana. Many of her fellow education degree graduates still don't have teaching jobs. As schools downsize and cut budgets, less teaching jobs are available. I'm not sure I see why we feel the need to bring more teachers to Indiana.

One can't help but realize the fact that the comment from RKW is neglecting the inevitability of 21st century growth in small cities like Indianapolis. This is one piece of a giant puzzle that central Indiana cannot avoid. Trying to "prep" the public for an onslaught of public relations via Pittman's team via a post on an article discussing the future of Zionsville seems a bit childish... If you are so against the idea, spend time with your locally elected officials, find a following and make your voice heard in public circles where your opinion might actually matter.

I think it has more to do with making quick money. Selling a building full of condos in a matter of months and raking in your profit is a heck of a lot quicker than renting a building full of apartments for years before recouping even your initial investment.
I think it's related to the DJ on WKLU that's going to attempt to break the world record for consecutive hours on the air.
Wow, you're calling Allen out for putting up a flag with their company logo at one of their construction sites? Doesn't every company do that while the project is ongoing?
