By Stephen Daum, Colliers The eyes of the sporting world once again focus on downtown Indianapolis as it hosts the 2024 NBA All-Star Game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in mid-February. It is anticipated that the game will have a $320 million economic impact to the city.

But like the return of the All-Star Game, downtown development projects have rebounded, with an estimated $9 billion in projects set to be completed over the next few years.  In anticipation of hosting the All-Star Game, Pacers Sports & Entertainment finished an extensive $400 million remodel of Gainbridge Fieldhouse, including new seats, expanded social gathering areas, plus the new outdoor Bicentennial Unity Plaza — offering public basketball courts and an ice skating rink in the winter.

We’re just trying to get our head around the value of assets today.” Sitzman made her comments as moderator of a panel titled “Investment Outlook: When Will the Bid-Ask Gap Narrow and Transactions Resume in Earnest?” at France Media’s InterFace Seniors Housing West conference, held Feb. 1 at the Omni Los Angeles.
