Value of State Property Invested in Indiana Lands and Buildings
A July 5 statement from the Indiana State auditor lists grounds and improvements held for the people. It covers the State House, various asylums, reformatories, and universities. The total value of grounds and buildings is 8,628,427 dollars, over 100,000 dollars beyond the state debt. The building values reflect actual material costs, not construction costs, and the soldiers' monument value reflects the fund used and available.
