This new system for reading the updates is horrible. I set up a log in and I still can’t see the full article about restaurant closing on 31. Please advise if it will continue to be this difficult to access the articles and I can just unsubscribe
Todd- Maybe it is the new system, but there are very few comments on ANY story that I can see. IBJ usually had pretty a pretty good comment section; I hope they didn’t muck it up the way The Star did with theirs.
Also, is there no way to edit or delete a comment? I messed up my previous comment, and tried to correct it. I’ll have to be more careful (or maybe just not comment.)
You need to be logged in on mobile to see the article. It’s a paid subscription, so you need to be logged in to see it.
I agree that the new system for an e subscriber is lousy. On an iPhone, every time you leave the website after being logged in and reading an article and then return to read another you have to log in again. Did not have to do this in the past. Discourages my use of the IBJ.
Also, from 465 to get on Meridian to go north is a nightmare. Fortunately, I go south. I feel sorry for people who are caught in the 1-2 mile backup every day. There is the same problem for people going on Meridian trying to get onto 465. As usual, whoever designed this didn’t think it thru. Why don’t ‘they ask the public for input? So they can see the flaws of their thinking?
It’s impossible to take this comment seriously if you have ever spent significant time in cities/suburbs similar in size to Indianapolis/Carmel (i.e. Nashville/Brentwood, Columbus/Dublin, Austin/Lakeway, Jacksonville/Sawgrass, etc.). Do so and you will realize that central Indiana has minimal traffic issues.
Agree. I464 and Meridian exchange was poorly designed coming/going north. At a minimum, they need to have 2 west bound lanes to West bound 465. It’s really not much better than pre-construction.
Visibility / access / laziness hurts both sides facing 31 near 126th.
I still miss the Bellacinos. :/
Does anyone really think the spokesperson for Carmel is going to agree that the construction was the cause of the downturn in business? I doubt that the business owner would make up a story and he has been in business for 8 years so pretty sure he knows if there is a downturn in business.
True, but after 4 years you cant attract more loyal customers…
Agree…difficult to get to articles.
Though in reporter’s defense, he/she may be under mistaken idea that Republicans like Brainard believe government is the problem, not the solution. At least that’s what I think Reagan was suggesting (but Reagan also spent like a drunk sailor).
How are some restaurants doing great and others aren’t. Could it be the food? If people want to eat there, they could find. Sorry things didn’t work out, but sometimes you need to look at your offering.
People seem to find Meijer and the surrounding restaurants with no issues.
Agreed. Not user friendly.
They need to tear that complex down and rebuild with housing and restaurants. I know the Carmel formula, but that would provide an audience for that part of the road. Suggestion 2, another corporate HQ with the Hampton Inn right next door.
Thank you for all the comments on not being able to see any of the articles. I thought I was going crazy. I can’t see anything either, and I have a print and digital subscription.
Mark Pi’s China Gate had mediocre food. That’s not the fault of road construction. That’s on them !
Judging by these comments, I think it is safe to say that the new comments system needs some work. It wasn’t perfect before, but it has gone in the wrong direction; is anybody from IBJ listening? (Maybe they can’t figure it out either
The number of empty storefronts in Carmel is directly proportional to the increase in city debt. It’s $1.4 billion with no limit in sight.
Next city hall will try to explain away the unsustainable show biz expenditures and Dizzy Land on the Monon as “prudent investment in the future.”
Non-Mayor, I just biked from the slums here in SoCar (Home Place) to Lowe’s. It looked to me like Clay Terrace is struggling, for sale and lease signs and a few dogs peeing in a park. I can report I did not have a lot of biking competition once off the Monon Trail, even by our biking all-the-time Councilor Kimball.
For those of us who have lived in this area for years – the road construction in this area ABSOLUTELY affected the business in this strip mall. It’s no longer easy to get in and out of this location and roundabout traffic is horrible. Also, La Hacienda has horrible food and rude servers. I used to frequent this strip mall when Jason’s Deli and Max and Erma’s were there. The construction and road closures stopped me from going there after that.
To the above comment above about treating it down and putting in housing and restaurants, there are enough restaurants around here now (including ones in other areas of the city that previously closed) and putting in additional housing there would increase traffic that would in turn further back up roundabout flow.
La Hacienda moved across the street to a larger location. Always jammed packed. People speak with their wallets.
Yes the road construction is the culprit. My friends and I used to patronize two restaurants there but no longer. Both have closed. It’s a shame.
I’m glad to know I’m not the only one having log in problems. IBJ – these improvements are NOT improvements as is often the case with tech ‘upgrades’. Getting to the stories on my cell and keeping IBJ on-line is now very difficult. It’s not much easier on my laptop. VERY frustrating.
If you stopped patronizing, how do you expect them to stay in business?
Thank you for your comments. If you are continuing to have problems logging in to IBJ.com, please contact Mike McGrath at mcgrath@ibj.com. who can help you work through those. We appreciate that you read IBJ. -Lesley Weidenbener, managing editor
Agree on the new article viewing and comments. I have a log in, and sometimes I can read the full article, but other times, such as this article, I cannot.
As for the restaurants at this intersection, La Hacienda moved across to the west side of 31 and does quite well. Amber Indian has been over there for some time and continues to do well. Now I don’t believe that there is anything else in that strip mall, as the rest of that area appears to be empty.
