Im very interested in the history of this city. You all see an old abandoned factory and I see a place where men went 75-100 years ago to work to feed their families.

What are some of the oldest buildings in Indy still standing? They dont have to be still in use, just still standing.

Im also interested in the old churches in Indy.

Near IUPUI area: Bethel AME Church, founded in 1836. Not sure if the current building was the original, but it is pretty old. Long Hall (formerly Long Hospital) on IUPUI campus opened in 1914. Another building across the street, Emerson Hall, opened in 1919.
