From July 24, 2008 issue Cultural Trail moves up construction in Fletcher Place, Fountain Square The Southeast Corridor, Pennsylvania Street and Virginia Avenue, connecting downtown Indianapolis to Fletcher Place and Fountain Square has been moved up in the design/construction schedule to begin construction in spring 2009. It was originally planned for design and construction in summer/fall 2009. Due to IUPUI's plans to redesign portions of its campus near Blackford Ave., the West Corridor, connecting Indiana Avenue to White River State Park on Blackford Ave., will be rescheduled once IUPUI has completed its planning process. The Southeast Corridor will also include a connection to the East Corridor. The trail route will be constructed from Market and Alabama streets to Washington St. on Alabama St. on the north side of Washington St., and turn south on the east side of Pennsylvania St. to connect to Virginia Ave. Fletcher Place Neighborhood Association and SEND/Fountain Square Cultural District formed a Cultural Trail committee to stay informed about design and construction. It meets the third Wednesday of each month at 6 p.m. Locations vary. For more information, contact Bill Lovejoy, blovejoy123@yahoo.com or 491-1985.       The Spotlight 4217 S.
