I recently returned from traveling to Atlanta for a long weekend. I was amazingly impressed by the Ponce City Market and how much the city has embraced it as a destination spot to shop, eat and socialize. The space is bookended by two major anchors in Williams & Sonoma and West Elm, but the rest of the space is made up of a large food hall, small artisanal makers and boutique clothing brands as well as art installations. It even has a rooftop space. By curating the right kind of small business, it really created a nice community within the space. Indianapolis does need to take a long, hard look at the Circle Centre space and how it impacts the vision of the city around it as well as the amazing convention traffic we see from the successful arm of Visit Indy.
