Top Tier Gasoline Because they are worth it. Letter from President & CEO The great Michelangelo once said, “The problem human beings face is not that we aim too high and fail, but that we aim too low and succeed.” Fortunately, the leaders and officials of Southwest Indiana have aimed high in the goals for bettering our community, and in doing so are well on the way to succeeding. This year’s edition of Keep It Local showcases the many ways that our region continues growing through infrastructure upgrades, quality-of-life improvements and an increasing number of entertainment options. By aiming high, local elected officials and business leaders were able to secure millions in funds through the Regional Cities Initiative, and four years in, many projects meant to attract and retain talent to our region are coming to fruition, if not well on their way. Success, indeed. In the pages ahead, we take a look at several projects that are cementing Evansville as a top attraction in the Midwest: the continued progress of The Post House, a unique mixed-use development that will feature smart-technology labs, retail businesses, apartment living and an open outdoor community space; the upcoming groundbreaking for the Deaconess Aquatic Center, which will be the largest indoor swimming facility in the region; an update on the I-69 bridge that will connect Indiana and Kentucky and is expected to bring a huge economic impact; and several new restaurants and bars with a wide diversity of food and drink options, led by Mo’s House and Myriad Brewery.

  • The Art Collection at Sunset Funeral Home & Memorial
    Fishing Under the Ohio Street Bridge Signed, limited edition canvas Giclée by Cedric Hustace the art collection at Sunset funeral home & memorial park Sunset Memorial Park has been a proud member of the Evansville community since 1948. The 2008 addition of Sunset Funeral Home, the only funeral home in the Tri-State area located in a cemetery, means unprecedented convenience and savings for the families we serve. Located at the highest point in Evansville, Sunset Funeral Home is truly an inspirational setting with breathtaking views over- looking the surrounding countryside. When it came time to select the artwork, we wanted our walls to tell a story to capture the flavor of the Evansville area and we embarked on a journey to find artwork depicting the area’s history. On that journey, we discovered that the city is filled with talented local artists. In fact, Evansville is listed #2 in an article titled “10 Great Towns for Working Artists” in the February 2008 issue of Art Calendar, a national trade magazine for visual artists. Making the final selections was extremely difficult as we found so many categories and artists we liked. Sunset Funeral Home is delight- ed to present to you our choices reflecting the area’s rich history and heritage for our permanent collection. We hope you like what we’ve chosen as you walk through the funeral home. Each piece includes a vignette describing the art and informa- tion on the artist. This program, which provides the same informa- tion, is yours to keep. If only the walls could talk—we think ours do and they tell a wonderful story of the talented artists in our area and their view of our little piece of this world.

Sterling Brewery 1301 Pennsylvania Avenue At the very corner of Pennsylvania and Fulton Avenue stands a brick, round-arched portion of the brewery com­ plex dating back to the turn of the century. The Fulton Avenue Brewery was established in 1880 at this location, and beer has been produced here (with a noticeable lapse during Prohibition) ever since.

  • HISTORIC EVANSVILLE a Self-Guided Tour of Downtown Evansville, Indiana Buildings Numbered 58 and 59 Have Been Razed Since the First Publication of This Guide
    HISTORIC EVANSVILLE A Self-guided Tour of Downtown Evansville, Indiana Buildings numbered 58 and 59 have been razed since the first publication of this guide. Welcome to Evansville! It is with pleasure that I welcome you to historic Evansville, Indiana. This guidebook will provide information on some of the prime examples of historic architecture in Downtown Evansville. The Riverside Drive Esplanade and downtown's Main Street have recently undergone significant physical improvements in an attempt to revive the city's rich heritage as a "Rivercity." Period street lighting and benches, brick paving, renewed landscaping and diesel trolleys, (reminiscent of those used in the 1890's), have been installed to visually reinforce a turn-of-the century theme by enhancing the historic character of downtown architecture. We invite both our citizens and visitors to utilize this pamphlet as a guide to explore Evansville's irreplaceable historic resources in the downtown area. 4^c U&*&* Frank F.

Reinvestment in once-blighted neighborhoods and the recycling of historic commercial buildings is a world-wide phenomenon. This walking/driving tour guide is an introduction to some of the more interesting examples of historic preservation in downtown Evansville. Trolley Rides The Metropolitan Evansville Transit System (METS) operates two reproduction Trolleys in the Downtown area.
