Building Indianapolis

Monday, October 13, 2008 by Mark Miles

Midwest Real Estate News published a story today about the Indianapolis region’s thriving construction industry, fueled by more than $3 billion in ongoing public infrastructure investments headlined by Lucas Oil Stadium, the new Indianapolis International Airport terminal and the expansion of the Indiana Convention Center.

 

These projects, along with the new JW Marriott convention center hotel, were critical parts of our successful bid to host the 2012 Super Bowl, and opens the region to a multitude of other major event opportunities (including commitments for NCAA Final Fours every five years for the next three decades).

 

But beyond the hospitality industry, Indianapolis’ changing skyline makes a broader statement about our status as a dynamic, growing region.  Our own Ron Gifford sums it – “The new developments suggest a city where progress is happening…People want to put their business in places that are moving forward. Successful companies want to be in a place that is growing and thriving. A personality of a community can go a long way in helping businesses make those decisions.”
