The Goshen, Indiana, sewage treatment plant
Even something as mundane as a sewage disposal plant can be well-designed and attractive -- as in Goshen, Indiana. Status: still in use as part of the local wastewater complex. According to Joseph E. Hauflaire, Goshen City Planner and Zoning Administrator, "Construction of the limestone building began in 1935 and was completed in 1938. We believe it to be the first Wastewater treatment facility in Elkhart County. The structure was recently cleaned and resealed as part of the 1993 upgrade of the entire facility. It now is used for offices on the first level and equipment and pumps on the lower level."
