In the heart of downtown Fishers, a project that has been five years in the making broke ground Sept. 2 at 8651 E 116th St. between the Nickel Plate Trail and First Internet Bank building. Construction of the Hotel Nickel Plate is just another way the city is working to grow and develop down town Fishers and the Nickel Plate District, according to city leaders.
Hotel Nickel Plate is scheduled to open in early 2024, according to Adam Chavers, chief development officer for Browning Investments. The project is part of a larger $157 million development announced by Browning Investments in 2018. Other build ings in the project include the First Internet Bank office and Nickel Plate Station, both of which opened earlier this year.

“It adds a different dynamic,” Fadness said. “We’ve built a lot of office buildings, we’ve built a lot of multi-use facilities, but we don’t have a high-end hotel down here. So, it adds another unique feature for down

Dora also said the company, which is only a few blocks from the new hotel, is working to get involved in the community and hopes Hotel Nickel Plate will boost business at other local restaurants and shops. For ex ample, Dora said the hotel plans to partner with Orangetheory Fitness for what they call a “no-shower happy hour” after work outs at the fitness studio.

It will have 116 rooms and will be one of 70 in the Tapestry Collection by Hilton highendConstructionhotels. is expected to take 18 months. The cost of the project is estimated at $30 Hotelmillion.Nickel Plate will also have a restau rant and bar on the first floor called Iron Horse Social. It will have garage doors that can open to outdoor dining and live music, weather permitting. The feature will also allow people to stop off from the Nickel Plate Trail to get a quick bite to eat or grab a drink, Dora Hotel Co. President Tim Dora said.“(The hotel’s going to be) a cool, funky, trendy hotel that kind of reflects the youth of the community through high quality and high service,” Dora said. “We don’t have a downtown hospitality (business). I think we need it for commercial travelers.”
“It’s going to be fun,” Dora said. “What we’ve found working with other hotels is that for many, this will be their first impres sion of Fishers and their last impression of Fishers, and we want a really positive first and last impression so they decide maybe to live here or work here or invest here or just play here.”

Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness said he hopes the hotel will attract new visitors to Fishers. He also said that it fits perfectly with the larger vision of Fishers that he hopes to see moving forward and adds a unique opportunity for the city to attract more people.

The devel opment also fits into the city’s larger plan for the Nickel Plate District that is laid out in the 2040 plan that is introduced in 2016. The goal for the Nickel Plate District is to create a sustainable, pedestrian-friendly, downtown where residents and visitors are encouraged to come live, work, and play.

Last year, I’d been hyper aware as this date approached, spending the preceding days dwelling on that final summer and the hours leading up to his passing. This time? I hadn’t given Dad a single thought in over a week, and it was only in the context of being frustrated that he’d failed once again to use his heavenly presence to secure me lottery tickets to the Masters. Am I a terrible daughter? Sibling? Merely human?Myhusband believes my forgetting is a sign that I’m healing -- that I’ve moved through the grief to a place where Dad isn’t gone, but also isn’t ever-present. I hope he’s right.

Might make a cry run
Recently, I received a text from my youngest sister saying she’d just ex perienced a cry run, where one bursts into tears while jogging. I asked why, and she replied that she’d been think ing about our father who passed away in 2020. Then my twin chimed in. She, too, had been remembering Dad and had spent the morning a little weepy. Sisters 2 and 3 followed with similar remarks, and I was left wondering what was going on. Why was everyone sad? When a photo came through from the cemetery, it finally dawned on me: It was the two-year anniversary of Dad’s death, and I’d forgotten. Like, completely and totally forgotten. If I hadn’t been singing John Denver in a hallway full of teens at the exact moment of this discovery, I would have fallen apart. But Friday karaoke must go on, so I stifled my emotions and continued mangling, “Take Me Home, Country Roads.” Take me home, indeed.

HUMOR
Afoul CommentarylanguageofbyTerryAnker
Mid-century country crooner Roger Miller penned an iconic song in 1964 retelling the story of the ne’er-do-well recognizing his own shortcomings while sitting in a bar instead of being home with his wife and 1-month old child: “Dang me, dang me. They ought to take a rope and hang me.” Capital punishment may have been too great for the transgression, but it was clear that he saw the error in his ways. Still, he didn’t rush home. And then he found a way to put some of the blame upon his upbringing: “My Pappy was a pistol, I’m a son of a gun,” he sang. Although the errant subject of the tune did not learn his lesson, the record did earn a Grammy Award for best Country & West ern song. It seemed that the repentant, but not too much, tone resonated with audiences.Bytoday’s standards, the lyrics are quite tame. Notably absent are the ag gressive use of profanity and assertive, if not hardcore, references to victims. Somewhere along the line, our posture has changed. It is unlikely that Miller was unfamiliar with the vocabulary that would ultimately become commonplace in popular music. Still, he elected to use the more colloquial and less intended to offend.Much of the humanities has shifted into the profane in the last few decades. The internet is filled with vile and un productive uses of modern language. So-called news and creative writing aggregators push out article after ar ticle expressing a number of opinions wrapped in strong language. Mostly, we ignore them. Today’s retinue included “&$^#-less in Seattle” and “@#%^ Writ ing.” Studies show that expletive use can reduce stress for individuals. But for mass consumption, does it reduce anything other than IQ?

Having just had a nightmare the previ ous evening, I put in, “Last night I dreamed about …” The first supplied answer -- and I swear this is true – was, “chickens.” If you have ever wondered whether other people have the same weird dreams as you, you’re in for a rude awak ening, probably by a rooster.

FUNDRAISER
The local band Board Meeting performs at last year’s inaugural RISE Fest. The band is among eight acts lined up for the second RISE Fest at Spencer Farm Winery in Noblesville.
Last year’s event raised $4,550 and this year’s goal is $6,000. RISE stands for “rock ers impacting and serving everyone.”
Among the goals for last year’s inaugural RISE Fest fundraiser was for the daylong music festival to be come an annual event. So far, organizers seem poised to accomplish that objective. Conceived by local musicians as a way to combine live performances with fund raising, the second RISE Fest — featuring a combined eight local bands and artists on two stages — will be presented from 1 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Sept. 17 at Spencer Farm Winery, 7015 E. 161st St., in Noblesville.
Ninety percent of proceeds from the free, family-friendly event will benefit four Hamilton County nonprofits: The Cooper House (Noblesville), Open Doors (Westfield), Resounding Joy (Carmel) and Highmark Church (Fishers). The other 10 percent will be awarded as a scholarship to a Hamilton County high school senior who plans to pur sue a music-related degree.
“The feedback (last year) was very posi tive from the bands, the attendees, Spencer Farm Winery and the sponsors,” said Andy Binford, RISE Fest founder and executive director.Binford, a Westfield resident who plays bass in two of the participating bands, expects more than 750 people to attend at some point throughout the event. Each band/artist will perform for 20 minutes.
The performers are John Prince, Jett Haddix, Board Meeting, Audio Hygiene, Blind Vision, Rain Dogs, Rhino Down and Naptown Hepcats. For more or to donate online, visit RiseFest.net.

Fishers actress has key role Mud Creek show
By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
“It’s bright and alive and I really relate to her resilience and willpower,” Crabtree said. “I wish I had more of her positivity and energy, though. The toughest part about playing her is her character arc. I won’t tell you how it ends, but the place she is at the end of the story is hard to get to with the amount of time changes we have in the show.”Formore, visit mudcreekplayers.org.
Crabtree plays the role of Kelli Mangrum. In the documentary, the real-life Mangrum is one of the toughest competitors and quick ly becomes a favorite to win.

kitchen, allows visitors to listen to record ings of FDR’s fireside chats. Other exhibits remember his four campaigns for president, including rare recordings from the earliest days of television. Other exhibits display some of his famous statements and speech es, including his famous articulation of the “four freedoms” in January 1941. If you are near Hyde Park, a visit to the Franklin D. Roosevelt Library and Museum is a must.
Today, as we continue our road trip to and from Cape Cod, we make the last stop in Hyde Park, N.Y., visiting the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presiden tial Library and Museum. Before Franklin D. Roosevelt, presidents considered documents and other materials created during their terms their personal property. Some sold or destroyed them, and others donated them to the Library of Con gress or other institutions. President Roos evelt wanted a better system for preserving what he considered public property. In 1939, Roosevelt convinced his mother, Sara, to do nate 16 acres of land from her Springwood Estate for a library for items created during his service as president and his prior public service, including as governor of New York. Roosevelt, an amateur architect, helped de sign the library building in the Dutch Colo nial style. This first presidential library, built with private funds, was dedicated on June 30, 1941, early in FDR’s unprecedented third term. Roosevelt often visited the library and made some of his famous fireside chats from a studio inside the building.

Visiting the FDR Library and Museum
Today, the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presi dential Library and Museum contains about 50 million items related to FDR, which he donated to the United States. Wings com pleted in 1972 contain 3 million items related to his wife, Eleanor. Besides documents and similar materials, the museum con tains exhibits related to FDR’s four terms as president, including one displaying his desk. Another exhibit, depicting a 1940s-era
