  • Fat Dan's Chicago-Style Deli is relocating to 54th Street and College Avenue, from a spot in Broad Ripple that closed in July.

Owner Dan Jarman hopes to open in November.

Walmart has existing market locations along South Keystone Avenue just inside the I-465 loop and along East 38th Street just outside the loop.
