Snapshot: Upstairs Downtown

0

Residents got a different view of the historic courthouse square during Noblesville Main Street’s “Upstairs Downtown” First Friday on Sept. 7. The event featured tours of the second and third floors of 10 historic buildings – and in one instance the roof. Owners of those spaces explained the current use of the apartment or business space and the history of the buildings. The next First Friday event is “Fall Festival” on Oct. 5.
