Holladay Properties, developer of AmeriPlex industrial park near Indianapolis International Airport, plans to build a $20 million indoor soccer facility at Grand Park Sports Campus in Westfield. The facility, which could break ground in as little as 60 days, will be home to three full-­?size professional soccer fields and will feature family-­?owned and Indiana-­?based restaurant Jonathan Byrd’s as their catering company.

At Grand Park’s Grand Opening on Saturday, June 21, Mayor Andy Cook announced the plans of the 335,000 square foot facility. “We are thrilled to announce this partnership between the City of Westfield and Holladay Properties,” said Mayor Cook. “An indoor facility will make Grand Park a tourism destination year round.”
