Set to transform downtown Speedway, Wilshaw is a mixed-use development anchored by an unannounced hotel. The proposal calls for 10 condos, 150 apartments, a 120-room hotel, and 15,000 square feet of retail space – this adds to a prospering Main St. that in recent years has undergone a slew of redevelopment efforts including the construction of Daredevil Brewery. Notably, the plan also implements a 500-space parking garage which looks to be wrapped and hidden from street view. Developers Loftus Robinson and Scannell Properties intend to name the project Wilshaw in honor of Wilbur Shaw, the last Indiana native to win the 500 which he accomplished for the third and final time in 1940. Slated for completion in 2018, Loftus and Scannell hope to start construction in summer 2016.
