- Lost Indiana
- When you think of memorable architecture in the U.S., the Hoosier state doesn't exactly jump to mind. Located in America's heartland, this area is part of what coastal folks often refer to as "flyover country." But upon closer inspection, Indiana has quite a few interesting examples of urban planning and construction gone awry. This fascinating site explores once-proud buildings and landmarks that have been reduced to rot and rubble. Read the sad story of the ill-fated Gary Sheraton, the detailed history and eventual demolition of Market Square Arena, and the account of a decaying fast food palace. Thanks to the efforts of one dedicated preservationist, the architectural legacy of a bygone era will be remembered long after the demolition dust has cleared. -
