Plans For Concert Venue For Old IP Property

VIGO COUNTY, Ind.  – A local family has a plan for part of the old International Paper Property.

Tim Drake and his family have announced plans to build a new music venue that could be called “The Mill”.

They invasion the site as an in and outdoor concert and event space that would be like Ruoff Home Mortgage Music Center in Noblesville, only smaller.

Drake would like to see up to 15 shows annually with attendance of up to 5,000 and estimates it could cost approximately $1.5 million to build.

County Commissioner Judy Anderson has been quoted as saying that this idea would not interfere with a proposed new jail on a portion of the site and that commissioners plan on working to help facilitate the plans.
