It works like this: first, Culbertson gets a new name.
Unoccupied since 2011 in spite of constant assurances, the historic structure at the corner of 8th and Champs-Ely-GAHAN becomes the mayor's new office.

As Dear Leader often says, "if you're not out panhandling for papa, you might as well be residing in a closet."

Sekula directs our region’s office of Indiana Landmarks. In other words, he asks pointed questions, poses daunting challenges and, all in all, pokes his nose routinely in business you or someone might suggest is not his.
Out with the old, in with the new? Not so fast, Sekula urges ...
