e d u c A t i o n o b J e c t i v e Architecture is a way of life, of thinking and creating. It is a balance at hand of the social, economical, and technical aspects that define the character of any project. My goal as a student has been to prepare myself for an ever-changing world, and be minded that the educational process never stops. Studies in architecture and historic preservation have given me foundation for a career capable of bridging the gap between new and old buildings. This enables me to think and be effective at preserving our cultural heritage while paving the way for development and building the community. My life goals involve projects of adaptive reuse, historic renovations and additions, building new in historic environments, and working with churches for renovations, additions, and new structures.

P r o J e c t s t A t e M e n t The Julia Carson Community Center is named after the second African-American voted into the U.S. Congress from the state of Indiana. Her efforts of community development and affectionate love for helping others have left a lasting impression on the hearts of the citizens of Indianapolis. Located in her community, COMPASS will be the beginning of a new era for the community, helping to point it in the right direction. Placed into a struggling area, the center will provide community shelter, after school tutoring and sports activities, counseling, small library, job fairs, community clean-up efforts, and provide temporary housing units for struggling families.

P r o J e c t s t A t e M e n t The St. Croix Marine Ecological Research Center is focused around outdoor activities and research. The center of the site is a swimming pier where research and leisure coexist in one space. From there, buildings radiate outward to catch daylight and breezes. The entire facility is designed as an energy harvester from wind turbines to solar pv panels and solar hot water systems. A living machine will recycle gray water and reduce the overall demand while the roof of each building collects rain water. The main lab is centered around a courtyard where easy access to the dock gives ample opportunity for research, leisure, and community outreach activities. Housing is located adjacent to the community, allowing students and faculty to engage in the local culture. As both a research and educational facility, the campus provides quality working space and a great cultural experience.

P r o J e c t s t A t e M e n t Remember 9/11 and how we all felt that horrible day? 2,977 people lost their lives from the horrible events of that day. And so, as a memorial to those who died, the Truth and National Reconciliation Commission will stand as a center for peace and place for people to settle their differences. Constructed on the site of the World Trade Center, the building will be covered in 2,977 windows, one for each life lost, so that the memory of the light of their lives lost will shine on New York in the honor. The simplicity of the design is meant to not clutter the mind but allow the occupants a greater chance for reflection. As both a memorial and a center for justice, the building will provide New York City the opportunity to invite people and cultures to come and settle their differences in hopes that the events of 9/11 will never be repeated.

P r o J e c t s t A t e M e n t The Adolph Gottlieb Museum of Contemporary Art will provide Ball State University with its second art museum and be a cornerstone for reconnecting campus with the community around it. Designed as if the architect was Gottlieb himself, the building attempts to reflect the simplicity and organization of many of his later works. Constrained to the policies for new campus buildings, the material palette was limited to limestone and brick, but uses those materials in a way like no other structure on campus. The ground floor houses the administration, back of house areas, gift shop, multipurpose space, and a cafe on the corner with glass wall that open to connect the functions of the interior with the busy street corner. The gallery on the second floor houses many of Gottliebs work along with several galleries for traveling artwork.

P r o J e c t s t A t e M e n t The Renaissance Pointe Redevelopment project attempts to look at the social and financial aspects of a deteriorated and mostly vacant community. Designed using HUD criteria, the house addresses both the economics and environmental issues in new construction today. The construction of the house includes extensive use of SIPS panels. A tight envelope and high insulation value coupled with the ability to cross ventilate the house will attempt to lower the cost of heating and cooling the home. Also, a metal roof and fiber cement board siding will reduce the cost of maintenance for the owners. A front porch will provide opportunity for residences to sit and engage the community while providing informal security.

P r o J e c t s t A t e M e n t Located on the Indianapolis Canal system, the Sustainability Education Center will provide schools and the local community an opportunity to come and learn about the latest technologies in sustainable design. The design parameters included the extensive use of CMU block and the inclusion of two full-scale building sections. In attempts to address the different needs of the building sections throughout the year, two large moving glass structures allow researchers to continue their efforts no matter what the weather is outside. Several shops and museum-type areas throughout the building will allow visitors to actively engage new technologies and better understand them. By placing the main collection on the same level as the canal, outside spaces between the canal and the building not only allow the center to expand, but will help draw people from the canal into the facility.

P r o J e c t s t A t e M e n t The Glascock Mountain International Youth Hostel is located in the wilderness of central California near several camping facilities and a remote community activity center. As the proposed housing for a new wilderness recreational center, the building takes into serious consideration the environment and experiential aspects of design. Stone in the building is from local quarries and the wood has been reclaimed from a recent forest fire in the area. The atrium space in the building directly looks at a bend in a nearby creek while the south facing bunk rooms give occupants views out into the mountains. An extensive green roof system provides both activity areas on the roof and will retain most of the rain water while the extensive use of glass walls and doors provide both views and cross ventilation for the entire building.

P r o J e c t s t A t e M e n t The Muncie Fire Station No. 1 Adaptive ReUse Study is a project dedicated to the task of analyzing and controlling the parameters of an adaptive reuse project. The fire station was Muncies first independent building dedicated to the fire department, and was completed in 1913. The station sat directly next to the rail road line that ran down the middle of Madison Avenue until the tracks were removed in 1952. The condition of the building remained in much of its original fabric until the 1960s. The adaptive reuse design removes part of existing addition, and adds a second floor on the south addition, while the original fire station fabric will be rehabilitated. The first floor of the building is to house a restaurant: kitchen in the addition, and an open dining room in the vehicle storage bay, which allows visitors to enjoy the open space of the original plan. The second floor of the building is to house five apartments. The project sits between historic downtown and the historic east side of Muncie, and hopes to be a cornerstone project for neighborhood redevelopment.

The Muncie Fire Station No. 1 has stood as beacon of community pride and safety for over 100 years in the city of Muncie. Constructed in 1913, the fire station was built to serve the growing needs of the area. Located on the east boundary of downtown, the site has central access to both the downtown and east side neighborhood districts and was the first independent building to be dedicated to the Fire Department. The building has gone through many renovations throughout its existence. In 1958, renovation plans detail the installation of a new concrete floor and stairs, and evidence suggests that the upper half of the hose tower had already been removed by that time. Further renovations carried out in the late 1960s and early 1970s would strip the building of all original windows, doors, interior walls, and most of the remaining fabric. Many changes, including furring out the interior side of all exterior walls on the second floor, the inclusion of several rest room facilities, and several additions to both the north and south elevations of the building. The station last saw active duty in 2009, when the mayor, in an effort to reduce the city budget, closed the station citing its age, lack of space, and structural deficiencies as a few reasons for the decision. Efforts immediately rang out from the community to save the structure from the wrecking ball, and the city soon decided to lightly refurbish the facility into a training facility. Today, the structure is under utilized and often sits empty. As the city is continually adjusting its budget, the city and community are currently looking into further long-term solutions for protecting this landmark.

As the future of the fire station may yet be uncertain, the proposed work and treatments for the building will transform the building into an up-scale restaurant and apartment complex. The existing west side addition will be removed due mainly to questionable structural integrity, making room of additional parking and a formal entrance to the restaurant. The south addition will have a second floor constructed and be completely re-brick veneered to compliment the original fire station. The hose tower will have the upper portion recreated to match the original as best can be determined from existing documentation of the original. The original fire station will be thoroughly cleaned, the brick re-pointed, and deteriorated limestone replaced. The main vehicle room will be converted into the dining portion of the restaurant, with a combination of fixed booths and tables. Storage for tables, chairs, and equipment will be provided in the hose tower. A bar will be installed on the south wall of the room and be the buffer between dining and the kitchen, which will be in the south addition. Rest rooms and two offices will also be located on the first floor south addition. The second floor will house five apartments, due to economic demands. Two apartments will be contained in the addition while three apartments will be configured into the original second floor. All windows in the building will be replaced with wood windows in like manner to the original, and the three garage doors will be recreated.

The North facade of the building faces Jackson Street, the main East-West street through
downtown and also serves as a state highway. This facade suffers from fake windows, garage
doors that are beginning to deteriorate, and some minor discolorations of the limestone. Proposed work is to replicate the original style of windows and have each window operable. Cleaning and re-pointing of the facade will take place where
necessary. Electrically operated replica gas light fixtures will unify elements of the building together while the replicated bi-fold doors will
give the restaurant the ability to open its dining to streetscape.
Existing North Elevation, Scale 1/16 = 1-0
Existing First Floor Plan, Scale 1/16 = 1-0

Proposed North Elevation, Scale 1/16 = 1-0
Proposed First Floor Plan, Scale 1/16 = 1-0
After the 1970s renovations, the interior of the building was left bleak and mundane. Acoustical tiles line the ceiling, and dull color paint hides the brickwork beneath. Proposed work
includes the removal of all paint over brick surfaces. A commercial kithen will be install in the addition, along with storage and restroom facilities,
while the main room will become a multifunctional dining room with
banquet and dance hall capabilities.

The East facade of the fire station is directly agains Madison Street, a major four-lane highway
through town. Salt from the road has severly damaged the bottom three feet of limestone,
requiring some extensive areas of replacement.
Existing East Elevation, Scale 1/16 = 1-0
Proposed East Elevation, Scale 1/16 = 1-0
The exisiting facade lacks the top of the tower, and is visually
distracting on the south addition. Proposed work is the recreation of the tower and expansion of the south addition to better fit contextually with the existing
fenestration.

P r o J e c t s t A t e M e n t The Elwood Public Library is a Carnegie legacy and a beautiful example of institutional architecture in small town U.S.A. This National Register Nomination is project that walked us through the process of applying for National Register status. As this building was already listed, the following form was used for class purposes only, but is complete. I chose the Elwood Public Library for is beauty, class, importance, and fond memories I have from childhood of the building. Today, the library is privately owned and is up for rent to businesses. The overall condition of the library is good, but the possibility of something happening before the building could be fully documented lead to the selection for use in the project.

Narrative Description(Describe the historic and current physical appearance of the property. Explain contributing and noncontributing resources if necessary. Begin with a summary paragraph that briefly describes the general characteristics of the property, such as its location, setting, size, and significant features.)
Summary Paragraph
The Elwood Public Library displays the characteristics of a Beau Arts Classicism building with its rusticated limestone facade, lintels, and raised basement. The building is a well preserved example of the style and is a great representation of Midwestern libraries of the time period. The limestone exterior and interior wood trim is in excellent condition with the slightest amount of alterations. A painted metal pediment over the entryway is a unique feature. Even though the roof is no longer clay tile, it has retained its original overall shape and done an adequate job in keeping the building dry. Water damage in the basement shows evidence of problems at one point in its history but currently appears completely dry. The library's main floor can be completely naturally day lit from the use and placement of its many windows. Looking through these windows and down onto the surrounding community, it is clear that the piano noble set up of the building helps to give the interior an aura of significance and prestige.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Narrative Description
The east elevation is divided into three parts, a central entrance way and two symmetrical wings flanking it. The entryway projects from the facade of the building so that the front steps land directly on the sidewalk. Two sets of granite steps parallel the sidewalk with a rusticated limestone wall that matches the facade separating the entry from the sidewalk. The landing of the steps is located halfway up the raised basement. The entryway is a single storefront tinted glass door with a bronze anodized aluminum frame and a single pane sidelight on either side, clearly not original. The door is topped by a broken pediment and tri-part Roman grille fanlight in gold painted wood trim. Around the door and fanlight is a smooth limestone pilasters and antique-looking electric lights and a connecting semicircular arch with a protruding limestone key decorated with floral patterns. Either side of the entryway are two columns that rest their base on the limestone trim that visually separates the raised basement from the rest of the facade. The interior columns are round fluted Corinthian columns with a typically carved capital. The outer columns are partially engaged with the facade and are square iterations of the Corinthian columns next to them. The columns carry a gold painted metallic pediment whose base is in line with the cornice of the facade. The frieze below is a smooth surface broken only by the while letters reading 'Public Library.' Above that is a row of modillions at the base of a triangular pediment that match the entablature. The tympanum in the pediment is a floral pattern; modillions boarder the bottom edge of the two upper portions of the pediment, which is then terminated in a simple acroterion. The pediment is flanked by a gold painted metallic parapet which does not extend past the sides of the pediment, and is terminated by slightly protruding elements that are topped with a limestone sphere above. On either side of this entry detail is a small portion of the facade before it returns to the main plane of elevation that is identical inform to the wings and contains both a basement and main level window in similar fashion to the main facade but are not paired nor contain a transom window. The raised basement of the symmetrical wings are large rusticated limestone blocks in a running bond pattern and topped with a smooth horizontal trim piece separating the basement from the main level. Two sets of windows are equally spaced. Each window opening has paired gold painted one-over-one double-hung wood windows with one-over-one aluminum storm windows inset to each frame. The windows of the main level are arranged on the facade directly over the basement windows and are also paired. These windows have a smooth limestone sill, are one-over-one double-hung wood windows with one-over-one aluminum storm windows inset into the frame. A thin wood fluted pilaster separates the two windows. A Roman grille square transom with single pane aluminum storm windows inset to the frame tops each window and is a part of the same wood trim. The windows are finished with a smooth limestone flat arch. The limestone facade on the main level of the building is also rusticated, in alternating rows of thick and thin layers. The outside edge of the wall is slight protrusion of the limestone facade as to give the corners of the building the look of shallow pilasters. Atop the facade is a limestone entablature, with a smooth frieze, modillions, and then a thin cornice. The final element of the wall is a thin green patina copper gutter system whose copper downspouts are only seen in the corners where the central entry protrusion meets the flanking wings.
The north facade of the building is divided in two sections and is faced and detailed in identical fashion with the east facade. The eastern half protrudes slightly from the other. Two basement windows are centered in this protrusion and are identical in design with the east facade's basement windows. The main level's window opening spans the width of both sets of basement windows. Here, three windows are grouped together (instead of two) in similar fashion as the paired

windows on the east facade, with the central window system slightly wider than the other two. The west half of the north facade is characterized by a central paired window in similar fashion to the east facade on the main level. The basement has been altered to allow for the installation of a door in the corner where the east and the west half of the north facade meet. The door is a white aluminum with a nine light window and is surrounded by black wood panels. The door opening and wood panels is trimmed out with a concrete frame. One basement window exists under directly under the western window of the pair above. As with the east facade, the only downspout seen is in the corner where the protrusion meets the rest of the facade.
The west facade of the building is nearly directly up against an adjacent structure and difficult to access. It is divide into three parts in similar manner to the east facade. The limestone facade and entablature follows the same pattern as the rest of the building. The central element protrudes slightly, and contains eight columns of windows, one-over-one double-hung wood frame windows with aluminum storm windows set into the frame; two per column, one directly over one another in such a manner to match the same height of the rest of the windows on the main level. The two central window columns share the same opening. Basement windows have been filled in with limestone to match existing. The protrusion returns to the main plane of the west elevation with walls that contain two paired set of windows identical to those found on said western protrusion. Either side of the central portion are identical wings, each with two basement windows equally spaced. Two single windows are centered in each wing and are similar to the windows on the east facade of the building.
The south facade of the building is an identical reflection of the north facade, where the east half of the facade protrudes slightly and contains a three part window on the main level. The only difference with the north facade is in the basement door on the west half of the facade. Here, a set of yellow painted steel double doors with a square single pane window in the top center of each door (with the right one having a metallic cover over it) are finished in a limestone trim.
The roof of the building is an asphalt shingle hipped gambrel roof, where top slope of the gambrel is nearly flat. The roofline is consistent around the building following all the protrusions with the exception of the main entryway. Here, the roofline follows the same rules as the rest of the roof but on a higher level. Two limestone chimneys center the two pairs of windows on either wing of the east facade and are located back in such a manner as to align with the protrusion return in the center of the north/south elevations.
The interior of the building is almost perfectly symmetrical in plan at both the basement and main floor levels. The basement is only three or four steps below grade. The floor is covered in carpet; the walls are plaster with an expanded metal lath and the rooms are trimmed with a dark colored wood. One of the fireplaces is missing and a boiler installed in its place to heat the building. One room on the south west corner near the alleyway contains a dumbwaiter system that connects to a closet in an office above; all the parts are in place, but the cords are cut and a floor is in place for the closetabove rendering the system useless for the time being.
The main floor of the library is in a 'T' shape plan, with the crossbar on the east side of the building running north-south and the bottom of the 'T' pointing westward. The main entryway contains a set of half stairs that land at the top of the 'T.' S|AT the cross of the 'T' is the librarian's desk, a carved wood octagon desk with the west side of the octagon (one side left open) used for the entry to the desk. Above the desk is a plaster barrel vault with wood trom. Wood half walls on the north and south side of the entry area around the desk forces users through a series of wood columns that divide the crossbar of the 'T' with the bottom. These columns rest on the half walls and the librarian's desk. Evidence for gas lighting fixtures on the columns are marked about half way up on the east side of every column by a lightening of the wood color and attachment of a black blank plastic switch cover. The floor of the entry around the librarian's desk is the original tile work with a blue, red, green, black and yellow diamond pattern set in a white field. The library is covered in carpet where light and dark stains still mark the location of the bookshelves that have long since been removed. Two identical fireplaces of a dark tan color in the Romanesque style with wood colored ceramic trim at the base and a large wood mantel are located with one in each of the side of the crossbar of the 'T' on the west side of the room directly opposite of the wall space between the two sets of paired windows on the east facade. The walls are plaster and are painted a light yellow color while the plaster trim and ceiling are contrasted as white. In the center of the bottom of the 'T' part of the room is a covered up skylight. Filling in the space in the corners of the 'T' are offices, two on the northwest corner and two on the southwest, the southwest also containing a staircase that lands at the southern facades double doors before turning back and ending in the basement. Each office area has a lowered acoustical tile ceiling.

Statement of Significance Summary Paragraph (Provide a summary paragraph that includes level of significance and applicable criteria.)
The Elwood Public Library is nominated under criterion A and C. The library is a physical testament to the early 20th Century American ideology of educating its citizens. The building was partially funded by Andrew Carnegie, making the structure a mark of Carnegie's influence on America. The library is also a wonderful example of the Beau Arts Classicism style. It is the only structure on Elwood to be in the Beau Arts Classicism style, and one of the best examples in central Indiana that is still in almost original condition.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Narrative Statement of Significance (Provide at least one paragraph for each area of significance.)
The Library is eligible under Criterion A because of its historical significance and contribution to the broad pattern in the education system of the 20th Century. The Elwood Public Library was built between 1903 and 1904, and dedicated the 1 June. The first efforts to raise a library began in 1898 when the city established funds. In 1901, the librarian requested $25,000 from Andrew Carnegie and an additional $5,000 in 1903 to complete the funds. The library was built during the gas boom for the city when there had just been a great influx of workers into the city. Even though the library was funded by Carnegie, the community has always chosen to call the library the Elwood Public Library. Location of the library across the street from the high school complex suggest that the library was intended to help serve the school system as well as the community. During the Great Depression, library records show an average of over 9,000 book in circulation every month, suggesting that the library become a focal point for many unemployed factory workers unable to leave the community. The Elwood Public Library became known as the North Madison County Public Library in 1986 when several county libraries joined together to support one another. The building became the central offices for the new library system and began to quickly outgrow the building resources. The structure was vacated in January of 1997 when a new library was built across the street. Although this sad event has left the building empty since, the silver lining is the preservation ofthe original fabric of the library.
The Elwood Public Library is eligible under Criterion C for its unique character in the community, well preserved integrity, and being a beautiful example of a Beau Arts Classicism building. It is symmetrical on the main facade and the building plan echoes the symmetry on a east-west axis. The site plan of the structure sets it back from North A Street in such a manner to complement the existing housing next to it, but the building built very close to North 16th Street which is the main facade of the structure facing the city block containing the high school. The single floor main library room sits on a raised basement. The limestone facade of the building is rusticated block and the protruding entrance is a full pediment of painted metal with delicately carved columns of limestone. Post cards of the original building suggest it once had a clay tile roof but no living librarian can recall when it would have been replaced with asphalt. The interior of the library has beautifully carved hardwood and finely detailed plasterwork.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Developmental history/additional historic context information (if appropriate)
The city of Elwood was first laid out in 1853. Elwood was incorporated as a town in 1872 and then a city in 1891. Natural gas was discovered in Elwood around 1887 and with it came the introduction of several large industrial facilities that would help the city boom. During this economic growth, Elwood continued to expand and develop. The city opened its first library in the home of the local librarian. By this time, the city had just completed a new city building and Romanesque high school. Efforts began to raise funds for the construction of a library building, and after several years of taxes and fund raising, they were successful. The location for the library places it a single block away from city hall and across the street from the high school, making the area ever more important to the community. Although the city was much less of a successful than the gas boom cities around it (such as Muncie and Anderson), Elwood was prosperous for years, even after the gas ran out. During the Great Depression, library records show that on average over 9,000 books were circulated every month. In 1940, Elwood's own Wendell L. Wilkie accepted the Republican Party's nomination for president of the United States. He is the only born Hoosier run for the office of president. Wilkie was in his early years of high school when the library was built; his future wife was a librarian at the Elwood Public Library up until they were married. The library was closed in 1997 and has been vacant almost ever since. A new library sits across the street where the old high school gymnasium once stood. Of all the municipal buildings that once characterized Elwood's downtown, only three remain, the city hall (now in private hands), the Neo-Classical Post Office (opposite end of the same block as the library), and the Old Public Library itself.
