Indianapolis anchors the 27th largest economic region in the US, based primarily on the sectors of finance and insurance, manufacturing, professional and business services, education and health care, government, and wholesale trade. During the 2000s, the city continued investing heavily in infrastructure projects, including two of the largest building projects in the city’s history: the $1.1 billion Col. H. Weir Cook Terminal and $720 million Lucas Oil Stadium, both opened in 2008.  A $275 million expansion of the Indiana Convention Center was completed in 2011.
