OUR ENDANGERED INDIANA SERIES
HAS TAKEN US TO HISTORIC

3
00:00:13.380 --> 00:00:20.053
BUILDINGS IN COMMUNITIES ACROSS
INDIANA. THIS WEEK WE HAVE AN
UPDATE ON RECENT CHANGES MADE TO
DOWNTOWN ATTICA, A REPEAT ENTRY

4
00:00:20.053 --> 00:00:25.592
ON INDIANA LANDMARKS “TEN MOST
ENDANGERED” LIST.
AROUND INDIANA REPORTER
MARY-RACHEL REDMAN JOINS US

00:00:25.592 --> 00:00:30.663
REMOTELY, WITH MORE ON THE
LATEST DEVELOPMENTS TO THE
NATIONAL REGISTER-LISTED
STREETSCAPE IN FOUNTAIN COUNTY.

6
00:00:30.663 --> 00:00:42.575
MARY-RACHEL?
>> THANKS, GERRY, DOWNTOWN AT KA
IS THE VERY FIRST PLACE WE VISED
ON OUR SERIES, NOT EVEN TWO

7
00:00:42.575 --> 00:00:53.753
WEEKS PAST THE VISIT, BULLDOZERS
CAME AND TOOK DOWN TWO BUILDINGS
IN THE HISTORIC DOWNTOWN
DISTRICT. SO TWO BUILDING HAVE

8
00:00:53.753 --> 00:01:00.860
BEEN LEVELED, THREE EMPTY LOTS
NOW SITTING ON THE NATIONAL
REGISTER LISTED STREET SCAPE.
THE CITY OF AT KA PURCHASED A

9
00:01:00.860 --> 00:01:07.567
NUMBER OF BUILDINGS AND RELEASED
A COMPREHENSIVE ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT PLAN THAT INCLUDES
LOW INCOME APARTMENTS AND NEW

10
00:01:07.567 --> 00:01:16.109
COMMERCIAL SPACES THAT WILL FIT
AESTHETICALLY WITH THE REMAINING
BUILDINGS STILL STANDING, AS FOR
THE HISTORIC BUILDING, THE NORTH

11
00:01:16.109 --> 00:01:23.416
WING WAS RECENTLY BULLDOZED
OFFICIALS TELL ME THE PLAN IS TO
SAVE THIS HISTORIC LANDMARK.
HOWEVER, I FOLLOWED UP WITH ONE

12
00:01:23.416 --> 00:01:28.922
LONG TIME DOWNTOWN BUSINESS
OWNER, WHO WE TALKED WITH IN
SEPTEMBER, AND SHE SAYS WATCHING
THESE HISTORIC BUILDINGS COME

13
00:01:28.922 --> 00:01:37.163
DOWN IS LIKE LOSING A BEST
FRIEND.
>> I THINK THERE WAS CERTAINLY A
FEELING OF LOSS, YOU'RE LOSING

14
00:01:37.163 --> 00:01:45.104
THE FRONT OF YOUR DOWNTOWN, WITH
THAT COMES PART OF THE CHARACTER
OF YOUR CITY. I THINK IT IS
STILL A SAD STATEMENT WHEN WE

15
00:01:45.104 --> 00:01:53.446
SEE OUR HISTORIC DOWNTOWN JUST
GOING AWAY LIKE THIS.
>> ANOTHER SMALL INDIANA TOWN IS
ACTIVELY WORKING ON IMPROVING

16
00:01:53.446 --> 00:02:05.358
ITS MAIN STREET, TIPTON'S
REVITALIZATION PLAN WAS APPROVED
AFTER RECEIVING A $45,000 GRAND.
THE PLAN WILL COST AN ESTIMATED

17
00:02:05.358 --> 00:02:14.767
5 TO $8 MILLION TO COMPLETE.
>> OUR PROJECTION SUGGESTS WE'RE
GOING TO CONTINUE WITH THAT. IF
WE'RE GOING TO CHANGE IT, IT IS

18
00:02:14.767 --> 00:02:19.606
GOING TO TAKE A CONCERTED
EFFORT. AND THAT IS WHAT WE
HOPED TO ACHIEVE THROUGH THAT
STRATEGIC PLAN.

19
00:02:19.606 --> 00:02:27.914
>> LAST WEEK WE VISITED THE
HISTORIC TIPTON COUNTY JAIL AND
SHERIFF'S RESIDENCE AND
SCHMICKER TELLS ME HE REMAINS

20
00:02:27.914 --> 00:02:37.390
HOPEFUL THAT THE JAIL WILL
CONTINUE TO ATTRACT INTERESTED
INVESTORS SO THEY CAN USE THE
LANDMARK AS A FOCAL POINT FOR

21
00:02:37.390 --> 00:02:44.297
THE REDEVELOPMENT PLAN. GIVEN
THE TRACK RECORD, THERE IS A
REASONABLY GOOD CHANCE THAT
COULD HAPPEN, SINCE THE TEN MOST

22
00:02:44.297 --> 00:02:54.007
ENDANGERED LIST DEBUTED IN 1991,
ONLY 19 OF THE 146 PLACES THAT
HAVE MADE THE LIST HAVE BEEN
DEMOLISHED. THAT'S A NEARLY 87%

23
00:02:54.007 --> 00:03:09.389
SUCCESS RATE OVER THE LAST 30
YEARS. NOT TOO BAD. GERRY, BACK
TO YOU.
>> THANK YOU.
