Indy Turns 200

200 years ago, Indianapolis was planned (and platted) on the banks of the White River. As #IndyTurns200, we are exploring the stories of the place we call home.

[Mayor Joe Hogsett @IndyMayorJoe]

Last night I was proud to attend the launch of the Digital Encyclopedia of Indianapolis at @indylibrary. As we close out our @IndyTurns200 Bicentennial, future generations will be able to learn and reflect on our 200-year history at https://t.co/06rxOF3IcO

Fue un honor ser parte de esa celebración espectacular conmemorando nuestros Bicentenarios!
