The Fishers Redevelopment Commission had a last-minute addition to the Monday meeting agenda – the sale of the parking garage and residential units in The Switch Building downtown, from Loftus Robinson to J.C. Hart.  That sale required several changes to the project documents governing the property.

The updated documents spell out the rights and responsibilities J.C. Hart will have with the parking garage and The Flats, the residential section of the complex.  Loftus Robinson retains control of The Switch’s commercial space.

J.C. Hart is a property management firm with headquarters in Carmel.  The company develops and manages residential properties throughout the Indianapolis metropolitan area.
