Building Indianapolis: The Jungclaus-Campbell Company

As Indianapolis’s oldest general contractor, the Jungclaus-Campbell Company, www.jungclaus.... founded in 1875, holds a treasure trove of resources related to construction of some of the city’s greatest landmarks, including the Coca-Cola Bottling Company (now Bottleworks), Madam C. J. Walker Building, Columbia Club, Murat Temple, and Circle Tower. Recently, University Library of Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis, worked with the firm to digitize photographs and records detailing the intricacies of the construction process.
Indiana Landmarks presents a look into the company’s history and the stories revealed through its extensive collection of historic images with guest speakers Bill Nagler, sixth-generation owner of Jungclaus-Campbell Construction; Ed Fujawa, University Library community advisor, author of the Indianapolis history blog Class 900 and book Vanished Indianapolis; and Deedee Davis, digital scholarship services specialist with Herron Art Library.
