  • Visiting the Indiana Welcome Center
    THE TM 911 Franklin Street Weekly Newspaper Michigan City, IN 46360 Volume 21, Number 40 Thursday, October 13, 2005 Visiting the Indiana Welcome Center by Paula McHugh Just a few miles from the Illinois border along Interstate 80/94, the Indiana Welcome Center building in Hammond delivers an archi- tectural metaphor of Northwest Indiana’s prominent features. One needs to exit I80/94 at Kennedy Avenue south to get a full view of the building. Looking at it from the north, tsunami-sized stainless steel waves create a sculpture of Lake Michigan. On a sunny day, those oversized waves glisten and sparkle almost blindingly, in ways familiar to us beach-lovers. Next, the eye catches sight of the sculptured dune hills, a form in concrete that reaches way above the waves. And true to the region’s history, steel smokestacks rise beside the dunes. As the eyes continue to pan southward, the view levels out and is anchored on the southern edge by an over- sized and unmistakable silo. Lake to the north, farmland to the south. Even the Kankakee River, Lake County’s southern border, is rep- resented in a horizontal wall of flowing lines.
