Indy Intersections: From Market to Modernism

SOLD OUT

Explore Indianapolis history through three buildings on one corner. For more than 100 years, the intersection of Alabama and Market streets has been a hub of city life. We’re connecting past to present through the architecture and stories behind three iconic buildings.

We begin in the midcentury madness of the City-County Building with its magnificent views of downtown from the 28th-story observation deck. Then take a behind-the-scenes look at the revitalization of Market East district in Cummins’ Indianapolis headquarters. We end our journey at City Market with drinks and snacks.

The program starts at the City-County Building, 200 E. Washington St., Indianapolis, and includes walking between three buildings. Garage parking is available at Market and New Jersey streets. Participants are responsible for their own parking.

$15; $12 members. Ticket includes light appetizers and one beverage. 21 and over only.

In partnership with The City of Indianapolis: Department of Metropolitan Development
