He went to private schools, Hotchkiss then Yale, eventually pursuing a career in architecture. Both his father and paternal grandfather's careers were in banking. After earning his B.A. and M.A. degrees in architecture at Yale, Woollen worked for three years in New Canaan, Connecticut: one under the tutelage of Phillip Johnson, a nationally known architect, and two on his own. In 1955, at the age of 27, Woollen returned to Indianapolis, both setting up an office and marrying within a week of his return. His first Indianapolis practice specialized in residential design. By 1968, the firm was incorporated as Woollen Associates, and its range included a variety of building types, from commercial structures to public housing. Later, the firm was renamed Woollen, Molzan and Partners. Woollen has had a great impact on Indianapolis architecture. Some of Woollen's more famous buildings include Clowes Memorial Hall, the Minton-Capehart Federal Building, the silver addition to the Indianapolis Marion County Public Library (now Indianapolis Public Library), the entrance hall at the Children's Museum, and the Barton Tower on Massachusetts Avenue.

  • Indiana Architect September, 1965
    INDIANA ARCHITECT SEPTEMBER, 1965 6 I extend greetings to the architects of the Americas: the artists and builders who create and sustain the cities of the New World. We have learned—too often through the hard lessons of neglect and waste—that if man brutalizes the landscape, he wounds his own spirit; if he raises buildings which are trivial or offensive, he admits the poverty of his imagination; if he creates joyless cities, he imprisons himself. And we have leanied that an environment of order and beauty can delight, inspire and liberate men. It is your responsibility as architects to communicate these essential truths. You determine, in large part, the shape of our cities. Those cities, in turn, determine the shape of our lives—so profoundly that future generations will ponder our architec• ture to learn our deepest values. Your work, therefore, has meaning which endures be• yond the life of the most lasting buildings, and you have a great task: to influence men to use their technical and com• mercial power to beautify the earth—not to blemish it. May you pursue that task with energy and vision. May your success be so great that when the judgment of the future is made, ours will be remembered as the Age of Beauty. LYNDON B.

After two years at Wabash College in Crawfordsville, he left to become an artist. He studied at the Kensington Art School in London in 1872 and at the Royal Academy of Bavaria in Munich from 1880 to 1887. Then Adams formed an alliance with other Indiana Impressionist artists, called the Hoosier Group. Adams set up portrait studios in Seymour, then in Martinsville, and eventually in Muncie, where he and William Forsyth began a partnership in 1888. Adams also painted with T. C. Steele at Metamora, and was strongly infl uenced by William Merritt Chase’s paintings exhibited at the Indiana State Fair circa 1896.

  • A Design Study for the Redevelopment of Market Square, Indianapolis, Indiana
    A DESIGN STUDY FOR THE REDEVELOPMENT OF MARKET SQUARE, INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA A Thesis Submitted August 15, 1958, as Required for the Degree, Master in Architecture At The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts Kenneth Shimer Wood, Author -- *v C ~ Lawrence Bernhart Anderson, Head, Department of Architecture I I ABSTRACT A DESIGN STUDY FOR THE REDEVELOPMENT OF MARKET SQUARE, INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA Kenneth Shimer Wood, Author Submitted For the Degree, Master in Architecture, in the Department of Architecture on August 15, 1958 BACKGROUND: Market Square (City Square #43) was part of four sec- tions of federally donated land given to Indianapolis in the 1820's when that city became the capitot of Indiana. The Square has played a major role in the city's cultural, social, political and commercial growth, due mostly to the presence of the City Market, one of the city's oldest insti- tutions, and the Tomlinson Hatt, a large, plush civic auditorium, On January 30, 1958, the Tomlinson Hall caught fire and was burned beyond repair, marking the end of one of the city's most treasured landmarks, The City Market was also damaged by the fire, Out of these circum- stances grew the current need for a redevelopment design study for this site, PURPOSE: It is the purpose of this design study to develop a plaza and building group at Market Square in conjunction with the new Indiana- polis -Marion City-County Government Building (to be erected soon on the City Square to the south of Market Square), which will: 1) further the historical role of this site in the future growth of Indianapolis, 2) add to the positive visual symbol of city government created by the City- County Building, 3) contribute toward raising the land values and en- vironment standards of Indianapolis' near east-side, SITE: Market Square is located in the heart of downtown Indianapolis, two squares east of the Monument Circle and is bounded by Delaware, Ohio, Alabama, and Market Streets, It is flat and contains 176, 400 square feet (420' x 420').
