The standalone Starbucks is planned as a 2,225-square-foot structure along Keystone, north of a Taco Bell restaurant and south of a Walgreens store, said Bryan McCarthy, senior vice president of corporate marketing and communications for Kite Realty Group Trust.
The standalone Panda Express is planned as a 1,200-square-foot structure along 62nd Street, directly east of the Walgreens store.
Projected opening dates for coffee giant Starbucks and Panda Express, a fast-casual chain that serves Chinese food, are to be determined.
In 1999, Kite purchased Glendale Mall, which opened in 1958 as the state’s largest shopping center. The mall was enclosed in 1969 and transformed into the open-air Glendale Town Center in 2008.
In May, a 4,100-square-foot location of luxury cosmetics company Sephora replaced a Catherines clothing store at Glendale.

Glendale and Nora have had a lot of redevelopment as of late and I’m glad to see it. We should be reinvesting in already developed area instead of the continued cycle of abandonment and wasteful greenfield developments.
Yeah, great news for the Glendale/Broad Ripple area. Just an observation (please don’t take it as criticism) but after spending some time recently in Hancock and Shelby Counties, places like New Palestine, I’m shocked at the blandness and flat land uniformity of those areas. Yes, people are moving out to barren fields and cookie cutter homes, maybe they see certainty and less risk in that, but gads, what are they giving up? City life certainly has more issues and challenges but if offers so much more in so many ways. I don’t get it, not for me. Cue the Green Acres theme song. Hancock County, New Pal? Bland, boring, and so desolate and gray, especially in the winter. Uh oh, I’m being critical. Sorry.

Cool,keep em coming!! And add new shopping areas around the City! It’s many areas in need! Money waiting!!!
Kite has done an amazing job with The Glendale area transformation. Good mix of shopping, dining and living selections. Then 62nd headed west leads right into all the development going on in Broad Ripple. Or one could travel north up Keystone Ave towards 86th to Keystone at the Crossing or Iron Works. Indy has definitely stepped its game up with several pockets of entertainment, living and dining districts around the entire metro and city proper. Plans for Circle Center and other locations throughout the city has been very encouraging to see. I hope to see even more bold developments to come.
Now if I could just get some redevelopment going in the Lafayette square Washington square Mall area. Washington square Mall needs to be completely torn down and turned into an open-air shopping center and start selling out lots to places like this.
Kite has done merely an okay job, nothing special or “amazing”.
