  1. Before long, 82nd Street in Castleton will be the next ugly and vile community filled with gangs, strip clubs, and run down buildings. The sleaze of Hustler… not a good look.

    1. Didn’t IBJ prominently feature Castleton as something with roads eliminated and turning it to an on-foot region?

  2. If you don’t like it move!!! See how simple that is? What’s illegal about it? Your fast food chains food kills more people than any!!! Store you don’t like! You want them closed down too? More people Die at the hospital and home than a sex store also! 👀Relax.. nerd👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀

    1. I don’t think anybody is saying they should be illegal or closed down. They just don’t think it’s the right place for it. Think about the nearest commercially zoned business to your home being changed to a Lion’s Den. You wouldn’t like it. With that said, I believe you are correct, if you currently live near Castleton my suggestion is MOVE. LOL

  3. I am curious to how long this store will last. If someone wants to order sexy lingerie, there are already plenty of stores that sell it. If someone wants “naughty” costumes or sex toys, it is quite easy to order all of that stuff online–no need to go skulking around a dimly lit store.

    This sort of “adult store” just seems like something from another era. I remember years ago when I was growing up in Indianapolis, they used to have similar adult “toy stores” out on the fringe commercial corridors, and I always wondered who even went to them (they are all long closed). But, at least back then, those types of stores made more sense since you did not have the option of online ordering.

  4. What is an adult product? According to the article, Hustler claims only 10% of the store’s inventory will be adult products.
    So 90% will be … let’s see – candles, bedsheets, robes, wine glasses…

    Will people have to be 18 or 21 to enter?

  5. If the community does not support it, it will close. Gangs, sleaze, and other vile and unsavory activities already exist and have existing in Indianapolis (and other cities and surrounding counties) for a long time.

    1. So if those elements exist in the community, admittedly on your part, might they just support it?

    2. Your comment is very strange. There is a difference between illegal and legal activities. Organized crime (i.e. gangs), etc. involves illegal activity. But, buying lingerie or “sexy” novelties is perfectly legal. Also, while I think that sort of stuff is silly, not “sexy,” and not my thing, I would definitely not equate lingerie with gangs and “vile and unsavory activities.” The pearl clutching on your part is a bit much.

      I just wonder if the store will stay in business very long since people can order all these things more easily and cheaply online. The idea of an “adult store” just seems very dated to me.

Your go-to for Indy business news.
