The Man Behind Bottleworks
“I’m very bullish on Indianapolis,” Isaac Bamgbose says excitedly when talking about developing the historic Coca-Cola bottling plant on the northeast end of Mass Ave. It’s not just youthful enthusiasm (Bamgbose is all of 26)—a rare 1930s Art Deco building on an even rarer 12 acres of urban property presents an exciting real-estate opportunity. “In its heyday, the plant was pumping out 2 million bottles of Coca-Cola a week,” he says. “It was a huge economic driver for the city. We have to do something worthy of that history.”
