Indiana shows strong urban development with a surge in new buildings and extensive housing under construction. Modern designed structures rise in towns across the state as business houses expand and old premises are improved, driven by high wages and materials priced near prohibitive levels. Local architects and contractors report more work than they can handle, with carpenters and plasterers in high demand to finish projects already begun.
