THIS TOWN ACTUALLY GETS THINGS DONE.​ WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT?

2/5/2024

All too often, eager locals find their great ideas held up by months of bureaucracy until, in many cases, the idea fades and dies. One city nestled in the rolling hills and wooded forests of Southern Indiana, however, has a different story. Through conscious and deliberate collaboration, with a daily focus on a city-wide comprehensive plan, the city of Jasper is a place where “things get done.” Its most recent venture: creating a people-centered downtown. 
​
Timed with the needed replacement of century-old water pipes, the city took advantage of the construction to fully renovate their downtown square.  “When you're going to dig everything up, when you put it back, you want to put it back nicer than what it was before,” explained Jasper’s Chamber of Commerce Director Nancy Eckerle.

The City of Huntingburg has issued a Request for Qualifications (PDF) from an artist or artist team to design and implement a new public mural in Huntingburg, Indiana. The artwork will be part of a larger master plan for an alley activation project designed by LAA.

Indiana University’s Center for Rural Engagement and ServeDesign Center commissioned this study, which proposes a series of projects to revitalize alleyways and urban voids.
