Rachel Bunn, "Historic Designation for Showers Buildings Moves Forward," Bloomington (Monroe County, Indiana) Herald-Times, February 27, 2015, pp. A1+. NOTE: The item below was abstracted by Randi Richardson from the original that was accompanied by three photographs/illustrations. Several buildings, once part of the Showers Brothers Furniture Company factory complex, yet survive. Members of the Bloomington Historic Preservation Commission hope to preserve them by giving them a historic designation. They are already listed on the National Register of Historic Places as part of the West Side Historic District.
