Re-use and Recycle: Enhancing Muncie's Downtown
,:::. (~

ABSTRACT
Economic decline in the downtown sectors of the typical Midwestern city has run rampant in
the past five decades. With the advent of modern commercial corridors, such as IND 332, or
McGalliard Rd. in Muncie, businesses have relocated out of downtown districts with the
promise of more traffic and increased business. This shift in the population of local and
commercial chains has wreaked havoc on many Midwestern downtown districts. Muncie,
Indiana, is one such example. In recent decades, as businesses moved out of downtown and
property sat vacant, many of Muncie's historic buildings fell into disrepair. This has led
property owners to tear down the structures out of convenience, with little regard to the
history of the building or the city. The demolition of these buildings has spawned the decline in
Muncie's downtown density. While many buildings have been torn down, there are still plenty
of vacant properties in downtown Muncie waiting, either for the wrecking ball, or for someone
to realize their great potential and refurbish them in a way which will once again encourage
businesses and residents to return downtown.
The goal of this project is to demonstrate to the public and others that these building are worth
saving, and that they can be used, re-used, and recycled to create vibrant and welcoming
structures, injecting life and progress to the downtown area. The project focuses on the
abandoned Muncie Star Press Building on High Street in Downtown Muncie, and consists of
detailed plans, sections, elevations, and construction details, demonstrating the true
possibilities these structures hold for refurbishment.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I would like to thank Mr. Brian Hollars for advising me throughout the semester and pushing me
to fully develop my ideas and make this project successful.
Re-use and Recycle: Enhancing Muncie's Downtown
THE SITE
The site is located in downtown Muncie on the
corner of High Street between W. Jackson and
W. Main St. It is a conglomeration of 5 buildings
that until the early 90's were used as the
headquarters ofthe Muncie Star Press
Newspaper. The Original structure, on the
Corner of High and Jackson, dates to the early
1900's. It was originally built as the Moose
Lodge. It housed the Muncie Evening Press from
the 1920's to the mid 40's. In 1948 the Muncie
Star Press moved into the building. As the paper
grew in size several additions to the building
were made and the original brick and limestone
fa~ade was covered. After the last addition to
the complex was completed, the Star Press
occupied the entire block, From W. Jackson to
W . Main Street.

Jackson and High Street
The Star Press used this complex until 1998 when they
moved into the recently vacant Ball Corporation
Headquarters building on Charles Street. The building
has stood vacant since that time. It has been the
home of numerous vagrants and been vandalized
inside and out. Now, the property is owned by the city
of Muncie, which for the past several years has been
trying to find tenants and developers for the building
or site. In December 2007, just after the completion
of this project, the city announced that the building
would soon be demolished and a parking lot would be
installed.

THE SITE:
continued
Structurally the buildng is in very good condition. The original building on the corner of High and
Jackson is a load bearing masonry strucuture. The building on the opposite end of the sight, just off the
corner of High and Mains street is a poured concrete structure. This building was once a car dealership,
and later served as a parking garage for the Star Press employees. The structures connecting the two
and composing the majority of the block were constructed using steel. These buildings are dated
somehwere between 1970 and 1990. They are very sturdy buildings as they were designed to handle
the weight of the newspapers massive printing presses and the storage of their finished products. It was
determined early on in the project that the original structures could support the weight of additional
floo rs above.
PROJECT STRATEGIES:
The finished project retains every existing structure on the site - reusing all of the structural systems of
the original block. The original Star Press building and the parking garage on the opposite corner of the
property will be restored to their original form, while multiple floors will be built on top of the steel
structure of the infill buildings, greatly increasing the square footage of the property.
The property will become a mixed use development with ample retail and office space as well as 20
lUxury and studio apartments. Large windows and a 16' floor to floor height (taken from the existing
structure) will give the tenants and residents of the property ample natural daylight. The recovered
parking garage structure will be utilized by the tenants of the apartments and offices.
Community green space can be found on top of that same structure. The existing reinforced concrete
frame is well suited to support this type of application. On the green roof residents can reserve plots to
grow vegetables or garden. The green roof collects and filters water from the other roofs of the
development providing nourishment for the plants and reducing the amount of water sent down the
storm drain.
WHY?
This development will be a standout in Muncie,
not for what it does, but for what it saved some of the original fabric of the once bustling
downtown. Through the restoration, addition,
and renovation of these structures, downtown
Muncie will once again be a destination for
community members. It will be a prime example
of how to save, restore, and integrate historic
buildings into a modern city.
