  • Good morning, this is Indianapolis Local Pulse for Sunday, January 26, 2025.

    We're starting off with some breaking news from the past few days. Local pastors are expressing shock and concern over the cancellation of a policy that barred ICE agents from entering churches. This decision has sparked a heated debate in our community, and we'll continue to follow this story as it develops[4].

    Moving on to the job market, we have some exciting updates. The tech sector in Indianapolis is booming, with over 121,600 tech jobs available as of 2023. Median tech salaries now exceed $104,000, driven by companies like Salesforce creating over 1,500 positions. If you're looking to jump into the tech field, now is a great time. Key skills in demand include Python, SQL, and JavaScript. Check out Indeed for the latest job postings, including opportunities at top local employers like Eskenazi Health and Brand Marketers, Inc[2][5].

    In real estate news, we have an update on the Old City Hall redevelopment project. Local firm TWG Development has revealed a new vision for the tower at 222 N. Alabama St. The design has been tweaked to ensure a seamless transition in architecture from Old City Hall to the new, modern building. The project is expected to be complete by the end of 2027 and will feature a mix of apartments, hotel rooms, and commercial space[3].

    From City Hall, we have some updates on decisions that affect our daily lives. The Indianapolis Historic Preservation Commission is reviewing the new design details for the Old City Hall redevelopment project. We'll keep you updated on any significant zoning changes or property developments.

    Weather-wise, it's a chilly morning today, but we're expecting a sunny day ahead. Make sure to bundle up if you're heading out to any of the community events happening over the next few days.

    Speaking of community events, there's a lot happening in our city. Check out local listings for upcoming events, including concerts, festivals, and sports games. And don't forget to support our local schools and sports teams. We have some fantastic achievements to celebrate, including recent wins by our high school basketball teams.

    In a feel-good community story, we want to highlight the work of EmployIndy, which is making tech careers accessible to everyone. Their youth services program is particularly impressive, offering valuable opportunities for young people looking to start their tech careers[5].

    Moving on to today's crime report, we have some significant incidents to report from the past 24 hours. There have been several arrests made in connection with recent burglaries in the downtown area. We urge everyone to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the authorities.

    Finally, we want to remind you to stay safe and warm today. This has been Indianapolis Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
