Cannelton, Paoli Among Cities With Endangered Historic Sites

Indiana Landmarks

Downtown Cannelton and a hotel in Paoli are among Indiana Landmarks’ list of the 10 most endangered places in the state. 

 

The list includes the historic district of Cannelton and the Mineral Springs Hotel in Paoli.

Also on the list is the Crump movie theater in Columbus.

No Evansville properties were considered among the most endangered.

Indiana Landmarks says places on the list often face a combination of problems, such as abandonment, neglect, and dilapidation.

Group president Marsh Davis says 85 locations from the 139 Most Endangered sites since 1991 have been completely restored or are no longer endangered.

In recent years, the organization helped preserve the Owen Block building and the old Greyhound bus station in Evansville.
