F&C, Axis, Host Reception for U.S. Conference of Mayors

Flaherty & Collins Properties was one of the many Indianapolis organizations to sponsor the recent U.S. Conference of Mayors that was held in Indianapolis June 24-27, 2016.

On Monday, F&C hosted several mayors – including host Mayor Joe Hogsett – and other guests at Axis in downtown Indianapolis for a reception that marked the close of the event, just before guests headed off to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for a trip around the hallowed track.

Breaking Ground at 360 Market Square

Dirt TurnEarlier this week, we broke ground on our latest development, 360 Market Square, a mixed-use residential tower in downtown Indianapolis. The 28-story, $121 million project will rise on the north parcel of the former site of Market Square Arena. The development, at nearly 300 feet tall, will feature a 40,000 square foot Whole Foods Market®.

Signs and Shovels

You can read more of the official details here, but today, we wanted to provide a behind the scenes look at the ground breaking ceremony. The Flaherty & Collins Properties team was excited to put shovels into dirt in ceremonial fashion, despite the frigid February temps. On one of the colder days of the year, the irony was not lost on our team that the projected was announced in 2013 on one of the hottest days of the year. We could not decide which was more preferable!

We were honored and pleased to be joined by City of Indianapolis Mayor Greg Ballard, City-County Councilman Vop Osili, Downtown Indy President Sherry Seiwert and our own CEO David Flaherty as guest speakers.
