The City-County Building in Indianapolis acts as the base for our consolidated city-county…read moregovernment. Within it you can find all of the county and city offices. The structure itself is an imposing 28 story structure that, until recently, had nothing alike in its eastern edge of downtown Indianapolis. The building really is an odd mix of adapting to the modern world while still being stuck in time. There are security check points at each of the entrances. Cell phone signals are unusually decent in this old building. And there is evidence of slapping a new coat of paint on certain objects, as seen on the elevator doors. But there is also evidence that the building is a bit stuck in time. It is the only building that I've stepped into in the past several years that had way more than one working pay phones. The dismembered heads of former mayors seem to really lack context until you read the plagues and then you're like "Oh, this is supposed to be honoring them". Even the building itself really just hasn't aged well. Before the Whole Foods Tower (or whatever it is called) was built, nothing really matched it in terms of height so it just kind of sticks out like a sore thumb. Maybe if it was closer to Monument Circle it would blend a bit more in with the other tall buildings, but it just...well, is big and imposing. Then you get into that you have rank-and-file government employees in the same building that is holding criminal trials, and you can kind of see what might've been a good idea 60 years ago might not be a great idea now. To the south is a public square where the original Marion County Courthouse used to stand. It is closed but is set to re-open with a bit more greenspace and whatnot. Oh, I almost forgot. There is an Observation Deck with a small museum on the top floor. You have to access it through the service elevator. It has a small museum of Indy history and a great view. Website link is the Building Authority, which actually owns and operates the building. Yeah, I'm a nerd and love discovering obscure government agencies.

Who is in charge of the architectural design of new buildings? Why are there so many UGLY buildings going up?? This really ruins the view!!! For example, walking on the Cultural Trail from the canal to the public library downtown: 1. The Addition to the library itself is glass and metal attached to a beautiful old historic building. WHY?? Why do that? 2. Behind the library building are new apartments which look like unfinished boxes in red and blue. (The Congress at Library Square). Please! There is no "library square". WHY? Who approved this monstrosity? 3. Just down the street is a beautiful older building which has apartments. (The Plaza at Library Square). They are embarrassed by the horrible looking apartments next to them. 4. Across from the library are the Meridian Arch condos (Formerly the Meridian Street Methodist Episcopal Church), a beautiful historical building. 5. Walking down the cultural trail, you can view the Scottish Rite Cathedral. Across the street are new apartment BOXES which provide a DISCONCERTING and UNATTRACTIVE view. WHY?? Why would you or WHOEVER allow these UGLY buildings to be put up? WHY??? 6. Further down the pathway is the new Phoenix Theater building which is made from what appears to be gray corrugated cardboard. WHY?? Why couldn't they build a more appealing building? 7. As I walk down the path, I pass by Economy Plumbing, which incorporated a lovely building in the front. 8. Across from that building is Zesco, which sells Restaurant supplies. They utilized a lovely old building to house their business. 9. Across the path from Zesco is a building with metal slats for siding. Apparently this is a Roland Design. Ugh! It is incredibly sad that the city of Indianapolis can't do more to make a consistent architectural plan or design. No one wants to look at the new monstrosities that are being put up endlessly.

My last visit to Indy found me having early morning coffee at this monument…read more The monument is beautifully done. Statuesque in a way that causes you to feel it's energy and vibration. It's a testament to life, death, freedom, and sacrifice. I sat quietly sipping my coffee and admiring the intricacy of it all. The monument sits on a circular roundabout in the center of downtown. The roundabout is expansive with surrounding buildings in the area. There is seating around the monument if you find the need to stay and take it in fully. The Soldiers and Sailors Monument is a reminder that freedom and liberty are hard fought and there are dire consequences to ensure their existence.

Jeff Lathrop of Lathrop Contracting refused to honor his five year warranty for a roof that was…read moreinstalled in 2019 and refused to do an interior inspection of a leak that was noticed four years after installation. The leak was found when the bathroom ceiling began to decay. We would have never suspected a leak on a new roof. When we found the leak, we sent a picture to Mr. Lathrop and he came out on Oct 23, 2023 and inspected the exterior of the roof and refused to look in the attic where the picture was taken. After having several other roofing companies inspect the roof and quote the leak repair, we have found that this roof was not installed up to code, 905.2.1, sheathing requirements that require asphalt shingles to be fastened to solidly sheathed decks. Wood that was promised to be replaced during installation was either installed with large gaps or not installed at all. Several companies refused to repair the leak and recommended a total roof replacement after indentifying 5-7 other areas of concern. Inspections also revealed nail pops, low nailing patterns on shingles, and punctured shingles, allowing water intrusion. We paid for this roof in cash, not with insurance and believe that Mr. Lathrop did a poor roof installation, and refused to honor his word by working within his promised five-year warranty to repair damage. We wish to report this company to the BBB to let consumers know the business practices of Lathrop Contracting are unfair and unjust because he refuses to honor his word, and provides poor workmanship.

Can you give me an update on the status.  The molds have been paid for.  I think we may need to be refunded for this order.  It doesn't seem to be in production.  I haven't heard anything from the manufacturer.  Please advise. Thanks Response from Indiana molds on March 28, 2022 (2 months after order) Susan, You are trying my patience. We do not give updates on the status of your order. This is for obvious reasons. Starlite that makes your mold, is on a strict schedule. They are taking  almost exactly 2 months to make orders and ship them out. They are the ONLY mold manufacturer that I have problems with. They refuse to fix the situation by hiring more people to help them in their very busy schedule. They really don't care that the customers have to wait.  If it weren't for the fact that 95% of my orders are made by them, I would not have them as a vendor because I believe that no one should have to wait 2 months to receive their orders.  I have fired other vendors who could not ship within 6 weeks. But they were garage operations who made all kinds of excuses and their business was minor anyway. With that said, when you placed the mold into your shopping cart on our site, it was very prominently displayed where you could not but help read it that you have to wait 2 months to receive your molds. It is also very prominently displayed on your attached pending receipt as well as the email that receipt is attached to.  If you persist in just ignoring my instructions, I will cancel all of your orders, ban you from doing any further business with us, and you will then have to order from someone else where you will again have to wait another 2 months to receive your orders from Starlite Molds. My card was charged over $200 for two orders made with these rude people. I will never do business with them again and I have blocked further conversation with them. If you need ceramic molds go directly to the company or to a decent company.
