  1. Can we not do better than this? It will stands like a fortress with these lifeless nearly impenetrable sides. Red lights to pretend it’s alive, but it’s not. It’s a big closed up sealed box. It faces the transit center with a side and does nothing for it. Turns its back on the people. Might as well be a data center. No welcome. No café. No shop no delight. Just blank wall with a mural, slapped on like makeup on a corpse with no soul. Maybe this type of facility shouldn’t be place in the center of downtown. If it has to be there, then can we not show a bit more care about how to make it attractive and engaging this building makes people feel when they are in the space around it?

    1. +2, another building to sit empty in the evenings with no activity to draw anyone to it. What a waste of a prime location. Why can this have been located maybe at the old RCA location of Sherman and Michigan Street?
      The city needs to encourage reuse of these Brown Fields as it looks like private development isn’t going to.

    2. You watch your mouth. This is Hoggies last grasp at a legacy you’re talking about.

    3. This building has nothing and everything to do with the downtown soccer stadium. Just wish it would have been part of the CSX redevelopment.

      Murray none of the mayors recently have a favorable legacy compared to Hudnut.

    4. I am not a Ballard fan, but his tenure was substantially more meaningful than Joes.

  2. We can and should do better. I don’t want to hear how great the Pacers/Fever are if they can’t build a that building engages with the public (likely using taxpayer dollars).

  3. ugly, and a waste of space with no street level uses and only a few stories tall in the core of downtown. Taxpayer money is being spent on this?!
