  • Trends in Industry in Allen County
    Barrett Legal Brief barrettlaw.com Trends in Industry in Allen County Article prepared for the Quest Club of Fort Wayne and presented in February 2021. Author: David R. Steiner, Esq. Introduction It was the Fall of 1982, and I was entering my Freshmen year in college. I had grown up in Fort Wayne, and the community was plodding through an economic malaise reflective of national conditions in which the dominance of the United States in the world economy was being challenged, most notably, in the automotive industry. I remember my high school soccer coach’s insect-looking car, about half the size of any car I had ever been a passenger in or driven, with a funny rounded “hatchback” trunk. The curiosity was a 1970-something, first generation Honda Civic. He was the father of a growing young family, and I surmised it was all he could afford. Later, I came to realize he was an early adopter of less expensive and, frankly, better quality Japanese-made automobiles. Over my lifetime of car ownership, I have owned more Hondas than any other car brand, and at my peak of car ownership (with three driving-age sons) had four black Hondas in the driveway at one time. In 1982, my best friend from high school was joining me at the same college, and we looked forward to college life with excitement. But for him, particularly, there was concern about the cost of attending college. His father was a supervisor at the InternationalBarrett Harvester assembly plant Legal in Fort Wayne. At its peak,Briefs the plant employed 10,600 workers.

Executive Summary Downtown Akron Retail Market Analysis / CONFIDENTIAL © Boulevard Strategies, All Rights Reserved, 2014. 03.12.2014 3 Downtown Akron Retail Market Analysis 1. Executive Summary Downtown retail in Akron, like in many other Midwest cities, faces challenging trends. Since the 1980’s, big box superstores have sprawled across the northeast Ohio suburban landscape while total population barely grew. The latest threat is e-commerce, chalking up annual 15% increases year after year. Given this harsh competitive climate, it is not surprising that the number of independent retailers has declined by 14% over the past 10 years in Ohio. On the other hand, there are 5% more independent restaurant operators in Ohio today than 10 years ago. Downtown Akron’s retail mix, almost all independents, reflects this trend with 50 foodservice operators vs. 28 non-food merchants. Downtown Akron Partnership (DAP) and a Special Improvement District were formed in the 1990s by property owners to pool business recruitment, marketing, and other efforts, such as the Downtown Ambassadors Program, launched in 2009 to promote a safe and clean downtown.

The smoothest Wof upgrades can often be problematic, but when you’re upgrading 10-year-old soft- ware and thus skipping several generations, well, let’s just say that “stupid” doesn’t nearly cover it. 2016-2017 Season That’s where we are, though, and the fact that you’re reading this is proof that we’ve survived the process (as we write this, however, that outcome is by no means assured). So let’s just brag up this issue and forget the past week ever happened. We begin with Hair, our cover story by Dodie Miller-Gould and the second-ever pro- duction from Three Rivers Music Theatre, the area’s newest professional actors pro- duction company. Given the state of the world today, reviving this 60s musical seems particularly appropriate. And the songs are impossible to shake once they’re lodged in your brain. Highly recommended. Also from the 60s, but a different bag entirely, are The Osmond Brothers, part of the Foellinger’s summer concert series. Michele DeVinney interviewed Brother Jimmy for her piece that appears on page 5. Also featured this week: Secret Mezzanine, a duo Wednesdays | 5-9pm sprung from Canterbury High School and a homemade ukulele.

  • Fort Wayne Economic Diversity Aviation, Defense Among Growing Industries by Symone C
    Community Focus – Fort Wayne Economic Diversity Aviation, Defense Among Growing Industries By Symone C. Skrzycki n a state known for making things, Fort Wayne has long been one of Indiana’s most manufacturing-intensive communities. While manufacturing remains an important contributor to the local economy, the loss of more than 2% of the city’s jobs between 2002 and 2007 opened the proverbial door for other industries to rise to the forefront. A number of major developments taking place revolve around Fort Wayne International Airport (FWA). Memphis-based Pinnacle Airlines expanded aircraft maintenance operations there by moving to an existing 60,000- Isquare-foot facility (more than doubling its space and creating 16 jobs). The airport also added direct flights to Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport via Northwest Airlink for Northwest Airlines. “Just having service through that hub opened up 40 new markets we previously didn’t serve,” declares Tory Richardson, executive director of airports for the Fort Wayne-Allen County Airport Authority, which manages FWA and Smith Field Airport (SMD). “Because it’s a hub, it provides more connections for our international passengers.” Additional initiatives include: • SMD opening a new facility to train students in aircraft maintenance and repair • Raising visibility of the defense sector – Stacey Fort Wayne is named after United States Army Smith, president and CEO of Fort Wayne-based General “Mad” Anthony Wayne. Prairie Quest Consulting (PQC) asserts, “There’s a lot more going on here than most people think about and know about.” • Consolidation of the domestic Moving Services business unit headquarters for relocation services provider SIRVA to its regional business support center in Fort Wayne (resulting in 240 new jobs by 2011) • A massive downtown revitalization project – involving a new minor league baseball stadium, luxury condominiums, hotel and more Fort Wayne International Airport provides direct air service to two Northwest Airlines hubs: Spreading its wings Minneapolis and Detroit.
