    1. Love Taste also and it is upsetting to see so many long-term businesses disrupted or closed for a transit system the city doesn’t seem capable of operating as promised.

    2. Construction is always disruptive. Years of highway construction throughout the state, have not only resulted in eminent domain property seizures, but also years of difficulty in customers getting to businesses. That is life, everyone has to deal with construction.

      That said, the owners of Taste admitted in the Star there were other issues going on, so this is clearly not really about the Red Line. And, they certainly wouldn’t be trying to reopen nearby if the bus line was an issue. Sometimes, Indy can be such a little cow town. Even in most far smaller towns a bus line would neither be big news, nor a source of controversy. Maybe, one day the city will grow up. Goodness knows there are certainly bigger issues to be concerned about, like the high homicide rates, the poor public schools, or the poor health of city residents, including high obesity rates, etc.

    3. @Sharon W- Upsetting to see a transit system that is literally less than a month old ironing out kinks? Have you even used the Red Line?
      Massive infrastructure projects take time to fix issues. Indy is sprawling with hardly any means of public transport. Red Line (and other upcoming routes) are a welcome addition.

  1. Tom nobody said that it was due to the red line that’s currently operating. Reading comprehension is a great skill if you know how to use. They said that due to the construction of the red line which means when the streets were torn up curbs and turn ins or cut-ins were no longer available.

    1. But let’s be honest, Taste has had terrible service for 2+ years now.

      Loui’s rent has increased rapidly and nothing has lasted more than 2 years in that location since 2008ish

      If the majority or shops/restaurants went out of business during this time on College sure, but to blame it on lack of parking when you are across the street from a parking garage is a bit inane…
