Amanda Bennett-Cole explores the forgotten history and abandoned sites of Western Indiana, from blighted neighborhoods to Cold War relics.

Amanda Bennett-Cole explores the forgotten history and abandoned sites of Western Indiana, from blighted neighborhoods to Cold War relics. Western Indiana is home to Purdue University, along with many factories that have managed to flourish while others left the state; however, that is not to say the area is free from blight. Entire neighborhoods that once housed professors and students are left to rot minutes away from campus, and hotels that once hosted important visitors have been closed overnight, leaving everything behind. Areas that were important for America during the Cold War and World War II have been forgotten, while the places that sheltered our most vulnerable have become ghosts on the side of the highways, overlooked and overgrown. Homes are left standing in the woods, a monument for better, happier times. Family photos look on from the wall, smiling from the past. Bomb shelters meant to protect from the threat of atomic annihilation have been completely forgotten about, their locations lost to history and forgotten in the corn fields, only known from old newspapers. Join Amanda Bennett-Cole on an exploration of these abandoned and forgotten locations in Western Indiana.
