INDIANAPOLIS — A once-thriving retail space on the northeast side is now an eyesore. A proposal to rezone it could fix it. However, residents say the proposed rezone is not what the area needs.'I've been here,” Sharon Arnold said. “I got to watch it thrive, and I've got to watch it go all the way down. When a shopping center does this, the whole area goes down.'In 2018, Devington Plaza lost its anchor store, Kroger. Over time, all the businesses left.
The task force says their neighbors want retail space, restaurants, shops, and a grocery store. The city-county councilor for the area says he wants the same. He says he doesn't support the rezoning of the area and that concepts for the vacant property are changing.'There have been many revisions of what the concept of Devington as a destination can look like. At one time, that was apartment units,” Keith Graves, a democratic city-county council member representing District 9, said.
