A boutique hotel from a modern home-decor retailer, a bar arcade, a 500-beer taproom, a restaurant from the Tesla CEO's brother and a mystery Cunningham restaurant are just some of the new places opening on or near Mass Ave next year.

Basically, when 2018 is over, the retail and residential stretch will look very, very different.

Here are seven cool, new place opening on or around Mass Ave next year:

1. A West Elm hotel and rooftop bar in the former Coca-Cola bottling plant

The 120-plus-room hotel and rooftop bar from West Elm is part of a $260 million mixed-used project to redevelop the former Coca-Cola bottling plant. Construction is expected to begin by the middle of 2018.

West Elm is planning to expand to four other locations by the end of 2018 — Detroit, Minneapolis, Savannah, Ga., and Charlotte, N.C.

2. Love Handle's move from the Eastside

After two years, Love Handle closed its Eastside location on 10th Street in mid-December to get ready for a new spot — and a bunch of changes — at 877 Mass Ave.

With room for 80 people to sit down and eat, the 1,900-square-foot restaurant is significantly larger than the version they just closed. Along with breakfast and lunch, the Mass Ave spot will also serve dinner, with beer and wine.

3. A bar arcade in the former IndyStar location

Sometime in the fall, Ohio-based 16 Bit Bar + Arcade will open its fourth and largest location on the ground level of The Whit, a nine-story mixed-use apartment building under construction at the northeast side of New York and Pennsylvania streets.

The 6,000-square-foot 16-Bit will have about 40 old-school video games, a full cocktail bar and six garage doors that open toward New York Street.

4. A new Cunningham restaurant in the spot formerly occupied by Old Point Tavern

It's not yet clear what Cunningham Restaurant Group's CEO and founder Mike Cunningham plans to do with the newly acquired Old Point Tavern, but whatever it is should be open in spring or summer 2018.

Cunningham will take over the longtime tavern at 401 Mass Ave. in January, and it's possible he could keep the name of the corner patio bar famous for its chili and nachos.

5. A place where you can taste more than 300 beers from around the world

The former Mass Ave. Toys location will become the home of a 7,500-square-foot international beer bar.

World of Beer, with 50 beers on tap and more than 300 bottles and cans of international beer, is expected to open at 409 Mass Ave. in February. But the place is more than beer, co-owner Addison Lusby said. A menu with "an emphasis on share-ables" has everything from American fare like chicken wings, mac and cheese bites and burgers to main courses like pork schnitzel, a salmon made with an IPA sauce and bangers and mash.

6. A winery with a good heart

In January, Carmel-based Peace Water Winery plans to open a location on Mass Ave's northern end, a tasting room at 747 N. College Ave., in the ground floor of 747 Apartments.

The winery donates half its proceeds to charity. Bottles of wine are priced at $24 to $35, though there is a cabernet sauvignon that retails for $120.

Customers will be able to taste five of Peace Water's 15 or so wines for $10 in the 2,500-square-foot tasting room.

7. A farm-to-table restaurant from Elon Musk's brother

Kimbal Musk plans to open two Indianapolis restaurants next year: Next Door, a casual, sit-down spot in the vacant Double 8 Foods market building at College Avenue and 46th Street and Hedge Row, an American bistro at 350 Mass Ave.

The spot, on the ground floor of The Marietta building, will feature dishes like mole-braised short ribs with polenta and radishes, wood-roasted trout with almond brown butter. For dessert, cookie jars to share.
