5 thoughts on “Fountain Fletcher is new name for boosting prominent neighborhoods

  1. IM JUST AN OLD MAN TALKING
    Wrong of me to spout because i dont know all the details. Ya do need an appetizing handle. Regardless of the name and more important is what you feel when you leave there. What culter you are targeting. What mix and balance? Thats the play. People who come to town need to be touted by hoteliers. Guests, local or transit have to leave saying, I ENJOYED THAT! so whats in the long range plan for that target? They said I was nuts for developing the Mavris arts and event center in a crap neighborhood. I think I made it an addiction for many. You’ve come a long way in my 30 years here. Make a play that pays the gas bill.

  2. DUMB–what is it about Indianapolis that they feel they have to create these neighborhoods that never existed before? SoBro and now this. I think most people know that Fountain Square and Calvin Fletcher are essentially the same neighborhood. Holy Rosary and North Square are more residential and less commercial. Holy Rosary is what 1 block from Virginia Ave. They waste money on this kind of stuff when they could just say come hang on Virginia Avenue. tada.

    1. Tim – I agree and honestly believe it’s real estate agents touting these “neighborhood” names adding them to listing descriptions. It’s a selling factor for people that don’t know any different. I witnessed it first hand during my 5 years in BRip. Slowly noticed the SoBro thing catch on and now its a trendy area.
