Claus' new South Shelby Street location

 

We are directly in between TWO IndyGo bus Red Line stops on Shelby Street -- one at Pleasant Run Parkway and one at Raymond Street.

Discover Fountain Square: www.discoverfountainsquare.com

We are 3/4 mile SOUTH of the fountain in Fountain Square, on the EAST side of Shelby Street.  We are 1/3 mile NORTH of the intersection of Shelby and Raymond Street, right where you can get on & off of I-65.  That intersection has a stoplight, on one corner is a White Castle, on another corner is a Safeway, the third corner has a BP gas station, and the last corner there has a CVS.  Again, from that intersection, we are 1/3 mile NORTH.  Please watch your speed!  Shelby Street in our area is only 30 M.P.H.!
