  1. I just wish everything wasn’t so cookie cutter and bland. You see these exact same types of projects in every city across America. Which developers would be more creative with their designs. Give Indy a more distinct look that’s unique to Indy yet modern and not typical or trendy.

  2. As I read this, it sounds like approx. 6 units will be available for “renters who make 30% or less than the average median income” out of the planned 52 units (11.5%) in exchange for the TIF bonds. Admittedly, I’m not familiar with the average set-aside for these kinds of projects but it strikes me as not necessarily the best ROI if the City and developer community are interested in providing meaningful relief to the housing challenges felt by folks in the downtown area. Separately, I’m shocked that 39 parking spaces are considered sufficient for projects this size in an already parking-strapped area. Sure, it’ll likely be dominated by students, but there’s no easy way to retrofit parking and ensure sufficient infrastructure to meet the needs of future development.

    1. The parking issues will continue to get worse in downtown as the city builds out. Remember the backlash for the red, blue, and purple line bus routes? The state doesn’t lobby for mass transit and thinks we can build around existing infrastructure. It’s a backwards approach, very costly, and forces to drive cars in places that should not longer be using them. Unless you have a driveway it’s a nightmare for parking.

    2. Plenty of parking exists in downtown Indianapolis. The city is awash in parking lots. Many just do not wish to pay for parking.
