414 Vermont Street Hotel Redevelopment, Conceptual Design

Our conceptual design package was presented to the City of Indianapolis Metropolitan Development Commission Regional Center hearing examiner and approved for the 414 Vermont Street Redevelopment. After multiple meetings with church leadership and Indiana Landmarks, our design team focused on using a majority of the existing structure of the former Bethel AME Church and built off its historic fabric to develop a cohesive mixed-use hotel complex that incorporates two separate hotel brands. The new building to be developed to the west on an existing parking lot for one hotel brand will be 8 stories with approximately 127 rooms, while the redevelopment of the existing church building will be 6 stories with approximately 100 rooms.
