David Kroll, Director of the Preservation Studio at RATIO Architects, Inc. in Indianapolis, approached me in September of 2007 about a project. The Eli Lilly Farm in Carmel, Indiana was in danger of demolition. The property was sold to a development company who was proposing an idea for over 1000 homes as a part of a "Master Planned Community" to be built on 335 acres of land. One of the stipulations of this sale was that the Conner Prairie Living History Museum had first right of refusal on any of the buildings from the property. The idea had been brought up to relocate a couple of the buildings on the farm to save them from demolition. I decided to document the farm so that future generations could know what used to exist there. That idea developed into my current topic: "A Study of the Relocation of the Eli Lilly Farm Office with adaptive use Options and Rehabilitation Recommendations." / Department of Architecture
