A peek inside the Calumet Club's third-floor future ballroom.

Develop New Albany's annual meeting was held Thursday at the Calumet Club in New Albany.


After the meeting, Dick Bliss treated a lucky few to a glimpse of the reconstruction of the third floor, once the club's gymnasium, and now slated for use as a ballroom. First, looking south toward the evolving mezzanine.


Next, looking toward the Spring Street side. Note the size of the stage.


Here are windows ready for installation.


I've known the Bliss family for years, and never fail to be amazed at their energetic level of civic commitment. The ongoing restoration of this building alone would be sufficient testament, and of course, it doesn't hurt that you can get a Community Dark from NABC on tap in the downstairs banquet room bar ... thanks to Mark for that. Posted by Picasa
