If you don’t like your neighbors, buy them out…
Simon is planning to do something big on South Meridian. I’m interested to see what it will be…
Hopefully there are big plans especially for the vacant parking lots. There is a lot of potential for this area.
I seen an article titled, ” How did Indy surpass Louisville”? It talked about the fact that after the ABA folded, Louisville lost its ABA team The Kentucky Colonels, the city sort of stayed in Indys shadow in respects to sporting events and conventions fueling economic growth as it did in Indy. Louisville had the Brown family and Indy has The Simons. Indy has Elly Lilly, Irsay Colts and Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shied. Louisville has Yum Brads and Humana and just couldn’t get their large corporations to buy into sports like Indy did. Point is The Simons are HUGE assets for Indys success. I have no doubt they have something magnificent planned for the area on south Meridian and on Pensylvania and Gerogia st….
Louisville is just as nice as Indy – with better city planning & they didn’t bulldoze all their history.
Detroit has lapped us at this point. It’s embarrassing.
Louisville still has more consistently better neighborhoods with sidewalks/curbs and streetlights and paved alleys
Louisville metro is just over half Indy’s size and Detroit is 2x. It’s hard to make serious comparison to either of them. (And Louisville lines their river frontage with freeway, something we managed to avoid here.)
Our peer metros in size are Columbus, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Nashville, KC, Raleigh-Durham, Salt Lake, Sacramento, San Antonio, Austin. And probably we should be comparing most closely to the other state capitals on that list, Columbus, Nashville, SLC, Sac, Austin.
Chris B., is right on point.
