Hendricks Commercial Properties has won Indiana Landmarks’ 2023 Cook Cup for Outstanding Restoration for its transformation of the former Coca-Cola Bottling Plant into the centerpiece of the Bottleworks District, a $300 million, 12-acre culinary, arts, and entertainment hub in downtown Indianapolis. This short film by Road Pictures honors the complex’s amazing transformation. Jim and Lee Yuncker opened Indianapolis’s Coca-Cola Bottling Plant in 1931 on a site where they had been bottling ginger ale and other soft drinks since the early 1900s. When the Yunckers began bottling Coca-Cola, they hired the notable Indianapolis architectural firm Rubush & Hunter to design their new plant. The result was an Art Deco showpiece, with a gleaming white terra cotta façade, bronze storefronts, terrazzo flooring, colorful tile walls, and the brand’s ionic script logo in gold-leaf lettering. The restoration helmed by Hendricks Commercial Properties brought back the complex’s eye-catching features, turning the former industrial building into a 139-room boutique hotel and creating a food and retail hall in two historic garages. Despite opening during a pandemic, the Bottleworks Hotel and district has thrived, attracting visitors from around the world and showcasing how preservation can drive economic revitalization.
