Realtor, contractor, architect advise on historic restoration By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com With regard to preserving historic homes, specifically in Noblesville, local experts offer a range of advice. Realtor Kurt Meyer, who lives in a house built in the 1870s in downtown Noblesville, consults with clients on what they can do to enhance their home’s value while retaining its history. “I can think of a time where on 10th Street, I saw an original Victorian-era staircase torn out of a house laying in the side yard waiting for the dumpster,” Meyer said. “I know people pay extra for that detail, and they were

taking their trump card and throwing it in the dumpster.” Meyer said property owners should consider preservation for two reasons. “One is you can never get it back,” he said. “And two, a lot of people watch too much HGTV and think they can Chip and Joanna Gaines every house. I think you need to have a longer view than whatever is trendy right now.” WHAT TO PRESERVE If an owner wants to sell or restore a historic house, Meyer urges them to retain as much of the original architectural detail as possible. “But the house has to work like a modern house,”

Meyer said. “So, bathrooms, kitchens, mechanical systems — if you want top dollars, those all have to function like a brand-new house.” A common mistake Meyer notices is removing original doors. “That’s something where you can lose a lot of detail because when you lose a door,” he said. “You lose the ornate hinges, beautiful, ornate doorknobs.” Meyer said owners should take their time when finding contractors to help with historic restoration.

Creative Works president designs environments for play By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com As president of Creative Works, a design and manufacturing company, Armando Lanuti supervises projects for attractions and themed environments in the entertainment industry. “That’s everything from laser tag arena, mini golf, Escape Rooms,” said Lanuti, a Carmel resident. “We have Lanuti done some work here locally with locations like Woodland Bowl, Urban Air, Laser Flash and Bowl 32. We were able to take part in the Peyton Manning statue.” Besides designing recreation environments, Lanuti serves on the board for MakeA-Wish Foundation. He helps develop unique ways to help Make-A-Wish kids’ dreams come true. “A lot of people think of Make-A=Wish and think of trips like going to Disney, but the kids don’t always have that ability based on their condition or the timeliness,” Lanuti said. “So, what we do is, we can help do extreme home makeover updates to their

room or a basement or something like that to give them a cool experience to have with their families in a space they oftentimes have to spend a lot of time in. “That’s been really awesome and epic for us to be able to use our unique talents in such a way.” For example, Creative Works painted mural in a child’s room to represent a bear and wildlife scene. Lanuti said Creative Works can incorporate a child’s interest into designs. Creative Works is based in Mooresville but plans to move its 80-plus team to a new space in Indianapolis in a few months. The new building is being renovated in Park Fletcher, inside the Interstate 465 loop off of Sam Jones Expressway. It is nearly 70,000 square feet and will allow Creative Works to expand. “We hired 20 people in the last 90 days,” Lanuti said. “We will hire another 20 to 30 in 2022. The new space will allow us to get everything under one roof.” Presently, Creative Works performs its design and manufacturing in three buildings. It will celebrate its 25th anniversary this year.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 “There are a lot of contractors out there who know how to buy and attach pre-fab things from Lowes and Home Depot, but are they really carpenters in a way we thought of carpenters 50 years ago?” Meyer said. “Do they really know how to build a staircase or do they preorder it and shove it in place?” DEFINING ‘HISTORIC’ Peterson Architecture Principal Architect Darren Peterson said when restoring a home, it’s important to establish value. “What makes a piece historic or non-historic?” said Peterson, who also serves on the Noblesville Common Council. “Being old doesn’t always mean it’s historic.” Peterson said to be aware of context when making restorations. “Sometimes they tear the front porch off, but that may have been what made that whole block have historic value,” he said. “Something we talk about on the (downtown Noblesville) square is which of those buildings holds its own value? The courthouse, obviously. But are all of the buildings on the square important as single buildings, or is it because they create the feeling and façade of the square? Can you remove one of those buildings and put something back and have it carry the same historic value?”

The after photo of a residence after MacInnis Construction restored the exterior. (Photo courtesy of MacInnis Construction)

RESTORATION COSTS In the past, costs associated with high-quality, long-term restorations were enough to make owners tear out historic touches and replace them with modern items. But now, as the cost of materials increases, Peterson said owners realize they can refinish parts of their home and save money versus replacing it with something new. Meyer said if someone truly wants to preserve history, they should take the time

to find the right kind of contractor. He said the search could take up to two years. He recommended MacInnis Construction, based in Noblesville. It is a full-service general contracting and design company specializing in historic restoration and rehabilitation of commercial and residential properties. Co-owner Heather MacInnis said homeowners should be aware of unforeseen expenses associated with historic restoration. She said kitchen remodels can range from $50,000 to $70,000 and take two months to complete. A complete exterior renovation can range from $100,00 to $150,000 and can take up to 2 1/2 months. “Always be aware that there will likely be expenses added to the job that are unforeseen at the time the estimate is completed. As much as we’d like to have one, the contractor’s magical crystal ball does not yet exist,” said MacInnis, who owns the company with her husband, Gary. “Historic buildings always come with interesting surprises that only reveal themselves as the project progresses. Personally, we love working on historic homes and businesses for this reason, but the owner needs to be prepared for the extra cost.” MacInnis suggests budgeting 10 to 20 percent above the estimate to prepare for unforeseen expenses.

Some projects MacInnis Construction has worked on include façade remodels or updates to several downtown Noblesville buildings, such as the Allstate building at 828 Logan St., Texy Mexy at 818 Logan St., Carmack’s Cigar Shop at 822 Logan St., Uptown Café at 809 and 813 Conner St., the Nationwide building at 817 Conner Street and Noblesville Preservation Alliance’s Preservation Hall at 1274 Logan St. “We’ve also worked on the Historical Society Museum in the Sheriff’s Residence on the square,” MacInnis said. “We’ve done work on over 26 historic homes in Noblesville.” MacInnis said most people approach the company through word-of-mouth referrals. “Historic property owners are very sensitive to how their home or business will be remodeled, as they should be,” she said. “They typically don’t want someone they just found through an internet search to work on their home. They know we are familiar with how historic structures are put together and how they should be finished out in a way that is sensitive to their needs without sacrificing the historic authenticity of the home or business. Sometimes those historic details, unfortunately, do get put by the wayside if the customer’s budget or modern codes will not allow for them.”

June 30 is the deadline to secure net metering for solar installation. (Stock photo)

Going solar in Indiana Who doesn’t want to harvest the sunshine to pay for your electric bills? That’s why thousands of Hoosiers across the state have invested in rooftop solar. If you’re interested in making the switch to solar, here are some things to consider. NO TIME LIKE THE PRESENT June 30 is the deadline to secure net metering. Net metering provides a credit each month for the electricity solar owners share with their neighbors at the same price you pay for electricity — an even swap. If your solar panels are installed by June 30, you’ll receive net metering until 2032. Systems installed after June 30 will receive lower compensation for the electricity shared with the electric grid. Systems placed in service this year are also eligible for the federal Investment Tax Credit, or ITC, valued at 26 percent of the installation cost. The ITC is scheduled to dip to 22 percent for 2023 and then end entirely for residential installations. Installing your panels this year to secure net metering and the 26 percent federal ITC will help to maximize your solar investment. The process for installing solar panels can take several months to complete, so there’s no time to waste. SOLAR ECONOMICS Rooftop solar saves money by reducing your monthly electric bills. Each individual solar installation will be different, with the size and upfront cost of the system based on your individual needs. Most residential solar installations will fall somewhere in the $10,000 to $20,000 range before factoring in the federal tax credit. It’s typical for bill savings from solar panels to break even with the upfront

investment in a 10- to 12-year period. The solar panels should be producing efficient electricity for at least 25 years, meaning the panels will be producing monthly savings well after breaking even on the investment. Solar companies should provide an estimate of the energy your system will produce, the breakeven point, and what your total return on investment will be as part of the sales process. If you don’t have the ability to pay for your solar panels with cash, there are several financing options to consider. HOW THE BOONE & HAMILTON COUNTY SOLAR CO-OP CAN HELP One way to learn more is to join the Boone & Hamilton Counties Solar Co-op. The solar co-op, facilitated by 501(c)3 nonprofit Solar United Neighbors, or SUN, is free to join and requires no obligation to install solar panels. Joining the co-op allows you to leverage the bulk-purchasing power of the group along with vendor-neutral technical support from SUN to make the process of installing solar panels easy. Group members select a single solar company through a competitive bidding process facilitated by SUN. The deadline to join the group is March 31, to ensure that all members can install their panels before the June 30 net metering deadline. You can learn more at a solar 101 webinar at 7 p.m. March 29. To register for the webinar, visit solarunitedneighbors.org/event/ indiana-solar-101-22-03-29/.

Zach Schalk is the Indiana program director for Solar United Neighbors, a nonprofit dedicated to helping Hoosiers go solar and fight for their energy rights.

FHS graduate develops passion for art By Chris Bavender editorial@youarecurrent.com When Fishers High School graduate Tyler Moore left Indiana University with a degree in informatics, he also ARTIST walked away with a passion for art. “In my sophomore year, I found the works of John Singer Sargent and early works by Picasso, which inspired me to dedicate time to art as a practice,” said Moore, who gradMoore uated from FHS in 2015. “In college, I would spend as much time as possible painting and practicing piano while at the same time attending classes and doing homework. “I took art classes at IU, but I found them lacking in any sort of technical training, so I decided to look beyond IU.” Through Instagram, Moore, 24, found The Florence Academy of Art, which reminded him of the type of school Sargent had attended. During his senior year, Moore — who now lives in Brooklyn, N.Y. — applied with the works he had been making in his living room studio and was accepted. After graduating from IU, he moved to Jersey City, N.J., to attend the school under Amaya Gurpide and Jordan Sokol, two modern masters. “It completely redefined art for me, and it was a very exciting transition,” Moore said. The COVID-19 led to the permanent closure of the school, so Moore enrolled at the Grand Central Atelier in New York City under Jacob Collins. “I learned so much in this time as I felt I had a second chance to apply the skills I had learned at The Florence Academy, and I felt my technique develop much more,” Moore said. “I then went into the painting year there and have since left the atelier system pursuing a professional career with commissions and sales, giving me some momentum.” Moore describes his art as a “pursuit in the tradition of the old masters that have inspired me.” “It’s not that I’m trying to copy them or

imitate their technique, but rather finding the freedom in my own sense of sight connected to my hand that they achieved,” he said. “I wish to translate my experience of life onto the canvas the same way they achieved, and that is my sole goal.” Moore focuses mainly on landscape and portraiture but also works from other subjects such as florals. “My goal in my artwork, though, is just to chase this perhaps impossible goal of a complete translation of my experience of life itself to the viewer,” he said. Moore, a self-taught pianist who supplements his income teaching piano lessons, said inspiration comes from many places and many people, living and deceased. “I think the biggest inspiration for me is just my ability to make an impact with my work the same way the people that inspired me to do what I do were able to,” Moore said. “There is a list of masters that I have put all my efforts into studying, including Ilya Repin, Diego Velazquez, John Singer Sargent. Rembrandt van Rijn, William Bouguereau, Sorolla, and so on.” In high school, Moore didn’t envision becoming an artist. “If there was one thing I thought I never had the talent for, the lack of ability, any inspiration for in high school, it was art,”

he said. “It is the absolute last thing I thought I would ever be doing professionally, but through a series of life experiences I have had I have found that it is a true integral part of who I am. I find that following your curiosity will naturally lead you to your path, and that is exactly what has happened for me. “I love all the things I do and many people I have met along the way.” Moore’s advice to young people is to follow their dreams. “Your happiness is the gateway to giving happiness to others, and if you have passion for something, you are giving something valuable to the world and those immediately around you,” he said. “Follow your curiosity and do not be afraid. Your youth is the time to be brave, to be unconventional. I went from being an IT guy to having my artwork hang in famous people’s homes, commissioned by extremely influential people, etc.” In the next five to 10 years, Moore sees himself expanding beyond art. “I can’t tell you where I will end up based on just the last three years of my life, but I know it will go beyond just art,” he said.
