Circle Centre doing well except for 4th level
Excluding the fourth floor, Circle Centre mall’s 11th full year of operation was a big success. Profit in 2006 increased nearly
18 percent to $9.3 million, according to an annual report filed with the city. But on the top floor, abandoned bar stools
have now collected four years of dust in the former home of a nightclub complex.iPhone sales strong in first weekend

More restaurants are looking to south side: Eateries eye expansions in ‘underserved’ market
Big-name restaurants scouting for Indianapolis locations have snubbed the south side for years. Eateries like Champps, Cheesecake Factory and Rock Bottom Brewery headed north, drawn by upscale developments and affluent neighborhoods, or downtown to capitalize on the high-traffic from convention visitors. But now, more high-end restaurants are showing interest in the south side, local retail brokers say. Among the chains looking are Fox & Hound, Champps and Old Chicago, a pasta and pizza concept that’s part of the Rock Bottom…

Whole Foods shopping for alternative store site: Will grocery go to Nora instead of Keystone Crossing?
Whole Foods might not be coming to Keystone at the Crossing after all. Residents of the Driftwood Hills neighborhood sued the city in February after it approved a zoning change allowing developer Paul Kite to build a Whole Foods grocery, plus as many as 30 condominiums, on the northwest corner of 86th Street and Keystone Avenue. As residents push on with their effort to block that zoning decision, Whole Foods is exploring other sites, including one in nearby Nora, for…
Lots of new office space planned along North Meridian: Some say corridor is beating out Keystone
When Walker Information Inc.’s lease was up on its Keystone-area offices, it looked citywide for new space. In February, the company signed a lease for space in a building along the North Meridian Street corridor because it got a good deal from Lauth Property Group Inc., according to Walker’s broker, Samuel F. Smith, of Resource Commercial Real Estate. Several area developers are betting that others will follow Indianapolis-based Walker’s lead, lured by the prestige of a North Meridian Street address….
BEHIND THE NEWS: Former Brightpoint worker gets boost from defender
B r i g h t p o i n t Inc.’s former director of risk management, Timothy Harcharik, doesn’t have a high-powered legal defense team. His federal public defender, James McKinley, is accustomed to representing people accused of drug crimes, not those charged with participating in a multimillion-dollar accounting fraud. But McKinley has done right by Harcharik so far. On April 20, federal Judge Larry McKinney of Indianapolis dismissed the indictment against Harcharik, siding with McKinley in a months-long…
BEHIND THE NEWS: Kite’s quest to fix Glendale reverberates on Wall Street
N o r t h – s i d e r s aren’t alone in eagerly awaiting Glendale Mall’s redevelopment plan. Wall Street is watching what happens next, too. Glendale is the largest of the 40 retail properties Indianapolis-based Kite Realty Group Trust operates. The North Keystone Avenue shopping mall collects annual rent of $2.5 million, representing more than 4 percent of the company’s total. So what Kite will do with the ailing, 724,000-square-foot property was topic No. 1 last…
BEHIND THE NEWS: Consumer spending spree gives spark to Simon stock
It’s becoming almost ho-hum for Simon Property Group Inc. Another year, another round of eye-popping returns for the company’s shareholders. The Indianapolis-based mall owner, by far the nation’s biggest real estate investment trust, just closed the book on 2005, a year when funds from operations-a key measure of REIT performance-zipped up another 13 percent. Simon shares last year rose 18 percent. Including reinvested dividends, the stock in 2005 returned 23 percent. It was the fifth year in a row the…
Kite flies third plan for Nora project: Developer scales back condos, dangles Whole Foods Market
Developer Paul Kite is back for a third round in his battle with Nora residents to develop a condominium/retail project on the last undeveloped corner of 86th Street and Keystone Avenue. In plans submitted to the city and to neighborhood groups, Kite’s PK Capital LLC has drastically trimmed the number of condo units planned for the 13 acres, but reintroduced the concept of a specialty grocery on the site. PK is working to bring the state’s first Whole Foods Market…
Who’ll fill it?: Nordstrom a possibility for Ayres space
Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus and Dillard’s may be candidates to fill pending department store vacancies at Castleton and Greenwood Park malls if smaller retailers don’t end up filling the void. The merger of the Federated and May department store companies that’s creating the vacancies is the latest move in a decades-long trend of consolidation in the industry. Some observers speculate a nondepartment-store retailer could end up occupying the space after the L.S. Ayres at Castleton Square and Macy’s in Greenwood close…
End of an Ayres?: Federated’s planned acquisition of May likely to doom brand name founded in Indy
When Indianapolis residents talk about shopping trips to L.S. Ayres, they are as likely to mention a visit 30 years ago as an excursion last week to check out the new spring fashions. As retail options have spread beyond regional shopping malls, stores like Ayres are no longer considered at the forefront of fashion. So, while Lyman S. Ayres and the company he founded in 1874 are an important part of the city’s social history, in the present-day retail world,…
BEHIND THE NEWS: Mergers may shake up Simon’s department-store mix Last supper
Big changes are brewing at the department-store chains that anchor Simon Property Group Inc.’s shopping malls in Indianapolis and across the nation. That may be good news for the company’s strong malls but bad news for its weak ones. The Wall Street Journal says Cincinnatibased Federated Department Stores Inc., parent of Lazarus-Macy’s, has rekindled negotiations to buy St. Louis-based May Department Stores, the underperforming parent of L.S. Ayres. Such a deal would be the latest in a string of shakeups…
