Historic architects and their work in Indiana

<p dir="ltr">Some of their creations are gone, with parking lots or modern structures currently on the sites. But some of the distinctive work of historic Indiana architects still stands in the town of <a href= "https://visitmadison.org/"><strong>Madison</strong></a>, the city of <a href= "https://www.evansvillegov.org/city/"><strong>Evansville</strong></a> and historic neighborhoods in Indianapolis including <strong><a href= "https://herron-morton.com/">Herron-Morton Place</a></strong> and <strong><a href= "https://www.woodruffplace.org/">Woodruff Place</a></strong>.</p> <p dir="ltr"><strong><a href="https://indianaalbum.com/">The Indiana Album</a></strong> and various partners are creating an online resource with biographical information about Indiana's architects and the buildings they designed, which ranged from houses and churches to theaters, hotels and a basketball arena.</p> <p dir="ltr">Some of the structures designed by Indiana's first prominent architect, <strong><a href= "https://indyencyclopedia.org/francis-costigan/">Francis Costigan</a></strong> (1810-1865), are now museums in Madison, the scenic town on the Ohio River where he was based for much of his career. Other Costigan-designed houses are still private residences. So are homes designed by Indianapolis-based architect <strong><a href= "https://indyencyclopedia.org/louis-henry-gibson/">Louis H. Gibson</a></strong> (1854-1907), who wrote two books about house planning and design, including <strong><em><a href= "https://www.gutenberg.org/files/42469/42469-h/42469-h.htm">Convenient Houses</a></em></strong> (1889), a guide for people of modest means to build their homes.</p>
