Buffalo Wild Wings made a fresh foray into downtown late last year, moving into long-vacant at 7 E. Washing ton St.-just a block north of the Maryland Street location another franchisee gave up on in 2007. What a difference a block makes.

Try to imagine a space large enough to hold as much water as thunders over Niagara Falls in five minutes. Now imagine stashing that water beneath Indianapolis in a cavity nearly as deep underground as the Indiana Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument on Monument Circle is high. That’s the goal of city engineers and consultants as […]
