Grant County Courthouse - Marion, Indiana

Art's Cleaners - Columbus, Indiana

326 California Street - While I do find the little commercial building covered in random ashlar stone to be cute, the real draw of this (and what caught my attention from another street) was the sign.

First Christian Church - Columbus, Indiana

531 Fifth Street - Built in 1942 and designed by Eliel Saarinen.  Sadly I only have the one picture of this modern beauty that I took while making a quick diversion on a trip from Indiana to Florida.  Columbus is definitely one of the places I need to get back to as it has a wealth of interesting architecture.

I'm not sure what side of the building this is but obviously the most notable feature is the 166 foot tall campanile.

Farmers State Bank - Wawaka, Indiana

7369 Albion Street - Built in 1923, this Farmers State Bank branch closed sometime in the 30's in the aftermath of the stock market crash (I'm told it was 1931).  It was then used as a grocery store until sometime in the 50's.  Then it became a US Post Office and has remained that up through today.  I'm told the original vault is still located in the building, though the door has been removed.

United Methodist Church - Wawaka, Indiana

7328 North Albion Street - The original church building (which is buried under additions and new facades) was built circa 1881.  The church was remodeled in 1928-29 after being struck by lightning.  An addition was made in 1953.  The building finally came to resemble its current incarnation with remodels and additions begun in 1961 which included adding the current facade and entrance and reversing the direction of the chancel.  The church features some very nice art glass windows.








Originally, this all faced the other direction.

These 60's light fixtures are fabulous and I would love to get my hands on them if the church is ever remodeled or torn down.


A much earlier view of the church.
