5 thoughts on “IHPC gives preliminary critique of plans for fieldhouse renovation

  1. Old and new, well done, can coexist in a way that is visually interesting and exciting. Many older European cities, and old Montreal here in North American, have few qualms with such coexistence. Indianapolis is a much younger city, and should therefore have no qualms about the proposed design.

  2. There are several large, flat parking lots directly to the east of the current Fieldhouse garage that could be converted into a parking garage and perhaps some mixed uses like commercial or residential buildings. The garage that is slated to be removed in this presentation is awkwardly positioned between the two older buildings and has two tiny flat lots that aren’t much use for anything. The Marion County jail will also be vacating its location in the coming years which gives further opportunity for development.

  3. It’s sad peoples priorities are so screwed up! People are starving, cant pay thier bills, not enough social workers, teachers dont get paid or given resources to do their jobs. And now e are considering wasting more money on this building? They can afford to pay their palyers millions of dollars a year but cant help with cost of building?
    Indians at Victory field pay for theirs.

    SO HOW MUCH IS THIS BUILDING THAT I HARDLY EVER USE GOING TO COST ME THIS TIME?

    1. You have to remember that the pacers are owned by Simon’s property group which a local company and they pay millions into local and state taxes. What they pay their NBA players is out of their own pockets. The tax breaks their asking for on the field house are usually property taxes breaks. Remember a city is basically a business and meant to generate money. If there’s nothing in place to generate money then the city dies. Research what happened to Detroit, Gary indiana and Anderson indiana.

  4. Sure, just property tax breaks. Have you noticed how many tax breaks developers receive in this city? Simons are here because of the friendly tax environment and giveaways. Do your property taxes go up? Everyone else pays higher rates unless you are on the inside track and have a brown nose. This has to be one of the most corrupt cities in the country. The money they pay the Pacers comes directly from their contract with the city and profits they receive on concessions and every event at the Field House. Don’t kid yourself.
