This piece reads like it’s trying to convince the public that nothing is being lost by tearing down all the buildings on site. What a shame.
In fact, some of the Diamond Chain buildings are beautiful, they have just been painted gray. The site contains the type of classic old industrial buildings that many other cities have the foresight to save and convert into beautiful urban lofts, creative spaces, markets, offices, restaurants etc. (Think Chelsea Market NYC, Think 5th Ward Milwaukee, Think Fenway Park in Boston, Think Bottleworks Indy) Tearing down these buildings instead of incorporating them the fabric of the development to create something truly special is a big loss for Indy. While the Diamond Chain buildings are not the caliber of the Coca-Cola buildings in the Bottleworks development, Bottleworks does show here that restoring old industrial spaces creates fantastic urban spaces that people love to explore and hang out in. The bones for something special is on the site already. Tearing it all down is lazy and visionless.
Dig up those traitors and send them to Covanta
I agree with John and I drive by the Diamond Chain building on a regular basis. Tearing everything down would be shame but the difficulties of saving select buildings rarely works out. Hopefully they integrate the history of the property into the design and keep some classic with a twist of modern amenities. Surely there’s a few spaces on the property where that could be achieved. Either way this is a wonderful project and great news for Indy! This could easy become a brownfield without the insight of Indy Eleven.
Bull-dose it and build something. Gezzz people can we make everything as hard as possible???
