Lawrence resident uses Miss Indy Juneteenth platform to share message of hope By Will Riddell will@youarecurrent.com Teresa Clay’s life has been packed in recent weeks with many wonderful, surprising moments. She’s enjoying the journey that life’s taking her on. But that wasn’t always the case for the Lawrence resident, who was recently crowned Miss Indy Juneteenth. Clay grew up in St. Louis, where she said she suffered abuse at a young age that left her traumatized. She was placed in foster care as a teenager but said her time in foster care helped mold her into the person she is today. “(Foster care) was a second chance at life,” Clay said. “And I’m telling you, ever since then, I just don’t take any second for granted. I know that I’ve been given a second chance.” Now 42, Clay continues to capitalize on that second opportunity. She was crowned Miss Indy Juneteenth May 29 at Marian University in Indianapolis. The event was presented by Indy Junteenth, Inc. “I think I stood up there for like 30 seconds with my mouth open,” said Clay, who has done some modeling in the past but had never competed in a pageant. “There are no good pictures from that moment.” According to the Indy Juneteenth website, the pageant’s mission is “to celebrate the Black woman in all of her shades, curves, and magic.” This was the second year for the pageant. Juneteenth is a federal holiday celebrated annually on June 19 and is dedicated to celebrating the liberation of Black Americans from slavery. The Miss Indy Juneteenth Scholarship Pageant is among the events held in the Indianapolis area to celebrate the holiday. One of Clay’s focuses for the competition was to celebrate her heritage. For the creative portion of the contest, she wore a cape that was inspired by her ancestry. She wore a handmade African garment under the cape. “My goal was to encourage people to do their AncestryDNA, to truly get to know who they are and to embrace who we are, and that’s something to be proud of,” said Clay, a single mom who works as a licensed optician. Clay’s search on AncestryDNA.com did more than shed light on her heritage. She discovered a sister she was unaware of.

Lawrence resident Teresa Clay was recently crowned Miss Indy Juneteenth

They have the same father. “That was a journey, but she is now one of the closest people in my life,” Clay said. “She’s really truly brought (my family) together. It’s been an amazing journey.” Winning Miss Indy Juneteenth was another giant step for Clay in moving on from her difficult childhood. “For a long time in my life I felt unseen,” Clay said. “I felt unseen, and that’s what childhood trauma can do. It makes you feel like you’re just in the background of life.” Clay said she wants to let others know that moving past trauma is possible. “It’s an ongoing healing, but you can do it,” Clay said. Clay will be part of an upcoming documentary, “Take Good Care,” which will showcase the lives of individuals who survived childhood trauma. The project is being produced by Vanessa Roth and Alexandra Gray, who also directed 2001’s “Close to Home,” another film that Clay was involved with that addresses childhood abuse. The new

documentary will be released on a streaming platform when it’s complete, according to Clay. Clay appreciates Juneteenth because the holiday celebrates African Americans moving past traumatic experiences, as she herself has done. And while there is cause for celebration, Clay said improvement still needs to be made so that Black communities can thrive. Clay said she encourages everyone to participate in Juneteenth celebrations. She said that change will start to take place when people aren’t afraid to know their neighbor, even if that neighbor has a different skin color, a different cultural background or a different life experience. “Get to know us,” Clay said. “Get to know our culture. Come out. Be a part of what’s happening. That’s love. Love is that you can celebrate with me.” For more, visit indyjuneteenth.com/. Teresa Clay can be followed on Instagram @ teresalovesall.

Vandalism forces early closing of Fishers Parks restrooms By Will Riddell will@youarecurrent.com A number of Fishers Parks venues are closing their public bathrooms at 8 p.m. each day because of a recent increase in vandalism inside the facilities. The parks with 8 p.m. restroom closings are: • Ritchey Woods Nature Preserve • Flat Fork Creek Park • Mudsock Fields • Brooks School Park • Cumberland Park • Billericay Park. Additionally, restrooms at Nickel Plate

District Amphitheater will only be open for large events at the venue, according to a Fishers Parks Facebook post. “Based on what we know at this point, we believe these acts of vandalism are being committed by unsupervised juveniles,” Tom Weger of the Fishers Police Dept. said. Weger said that the issues have included tipped over trash cans, graffiti and damaged property inside the facilities. Residents are encouraged to report suspicious activity by calling either 911 or 317773-1282 (non-emergency). An online form for reporting vandalism can be found at bit.ly/3Odcu3V.

Facility construction begins By Mike Beas news@currentinfishers.com The rapid growth of Fishers both in population and as a potential manufacturing site has allowed the MANUFACTURING city to develop a reputation capable of reaching abroad. On June 7, List Biotherapeutics, a subsidiary of South Korea-based Genome & Co., broke ground on a 110,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art manufacturing facility that, in time, is expected to employ 210 workers in the areas of biologics manufacturing and quality and regulatory compliance. The combination of a laboratory and production plant is being built at a cost of $125 million. It will be in the Fishers Life Science and Innovation Park, encompassing a total of 15 acres. Construction is expected to be complete by the end of 2023. “I think it’s part of the momentum we’re building. It sends a message to the market that Fishers is a great place for like-minded companies to invest in our communities,” Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness said. “We’re

open to a variety of businesses.” List Biological Laboratories, Inc., has more than 40 years of experience with bacterial-derived products. Its headquarters are in Campbell, Calif., in the San Francisco Bay Area. List Labs has world-class expertise in drug product development, including bacterial fermentation, protein purification, process development, analytical development, scale-up and development of robust cGMP manufacturing processes for drug products used in clinical trials. Genome & Co., established in 2015, develops next waves of innovative drugs, including anti-cancer microbiome therapeutics and novel target immune checkpoint inhibitors. The Fishers facility expands List Lab’s ability to offer an end-to-end manufacturing solution from early-stage development to late-stage clinical trials and commercialization. Since 2020, the City of Fishers has enjoyed $750 million in investment from biotech and biopharma companies. Fadness is confident the momentum is going to continue.

Unique eatery opening soon By Nichole Meloche news@currentinfishers.com

presents

A new restaurant with a unique concept is opening later this month in Fishers. Room Service on Wheels, at 11110 LanFOOD tern Rd., offers customers a different kind of dining experience. Owners Randy De John and Mike Nash decided to open the restaurant with a “ghost kitchen” after they noticed common trends with popular food delivery services. A “ghost kitchen” is a restaurant that offers delivery and takeout only. Customers can pickup orders from the to-go window, curbside pickup, the outdoor patio or the delivery service. As a “ghost kitchen,” there is no indoor seating. The delivery area is 2.5 miles. The catering menu is available for areas outside of the delivery region. Delivery drivers represent the most unique aspect of the restaurant. They do not all use cars to deliver orders. Some use other vehicles, such as bikes, mopeds and golf carts. Room Service on Wheels offers menu items from pasta to pizza to salads and wraps. It also offers hot and cold sandwich-

es and burgers. All ingredients are made from scratch and never frozen. “About a year and a half ago, Mike and I were ordering takeout a lot,” De John said. “We came up with an idea based on the flaws of the popular delivery services.” De John said most delivery services have high service fees. Room Service on Wheels does not charge excessive fees. De John and Nash wanted to create menu items that travels well and quickly. For example, pizza box nachos are designed to keep the chips from getting soggy during delivery. The owners felt that because most delivery drivers are contracted out, the delivery experience is not as personal. They wanted customers to have a pleasant experience with their delivery drivers. “Our drivers come to the door with name tags on,” De John said. “All of our drivers are part of the company. They hand it to the customers instead of just dropping it off and sending a picture of it.” The first restaurant is set to open in later this month. De John and Nash plan to open at least six additional restaurants in the next five years.

COVER STORY

www.currentinfishers.com

Spark!Fishers set to kick off summer By Taylor Dixon news@currentinfishers.com Spark!Fishers will light up the town June 21-25, and this year’s event promises to be bigger and better than ever. The festival, which was on hiatus in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic, is entering its fourth year and will have something for every member of the family. “I really enjoy seeing the community come together for these events,” said Sarah Sandquist, director of Fishers Parks and Recreation. “Seeing everybody out really kicks off the summer as this huge event, bringing people to the downtown area and the variety of opportunities that we have.” A free concert by the White River Wind Symphony at the Nickle Plate District Amphitheater June 21 kicks off the event. The symphony will perform a medley of patriotic songs to usher in next month’s Fourth of July weekend. The annual Spark!Fishers 5K run/walk, which will be family friendly and stroller accessible, takes place June 22. Contestants will race through Fishers and the Nickle Plate District. For pricing and to register for the event, which is open to adults and kids 8 and up, visit Fishers Parks and Recreation website at sparkfishers.com. Younger kids will also be able to get their turn with the Kids Fun Run-30 Yard Dash before the 5K. Registration for that event is $10. A car and art show will be presented June 23. Organizers expect a record number of cars, with 50 already signed up. Resident artists from the Fishers Art Council will also disply their art. On June 24, a Bruno Mars Tribute band, Uptown Funk, will perform a free concert on the amphitheater stage. On June 25, the popular Spark!Fishers street fair, parade and fireworks will be presented. Live music will be performed throughout the day on the amphitheater stage, community stage and the solo stage. A larger kids’ zone will be set up with separate areas for toddlers and teenagers. The zones will include inflatables, a mobile skate park, yard games, a Ferris wheel and other

activities. Wristbands will start at $3. Parents are encouraged to pick them up before June 24 at the Parks office at 8100 E 106th St, Suite 150, Fishers. The parade will begin at 6 p.m. and continue through downtown Fishers. The event will culminate with fireworks at dusk. “I think events like this create a sense of place for residents,” Sandquist said. “They build community, they get people involved. We have over 12 (volunteers) and we’ll log over 1,200 volunteer hours on Saturday alone with Spark fishers and the number of volunteers that we utilize. So even if you’re not coming as a participant, there’s so many other ways to get involved with the events, and that just helps build community.” More than 100 food and art vendors will be on-site the final day. Food trucks and vendors will also be on-site throughout the event. Shuttles will be available again this year. They will depart from the conference center and drop riders off in front of First Internet

Bank, one of the event’s biggest sponsors. Shuttles will run every 10 minutes from 1:30 p.m. to midnight. For more, visit sparkfishers.com. ON THE COVER: Guests enjoy a previous Spark!Fishers street fair. (File Photo)

Red, white and BOOM news@currentinfishers.com With Spark! Fishers at the doorstep (June 21-25) and the annual Independence Day celebration following on July 4, it’s time to take stock of what is (and isn’t) allowed in terms of red, white and boom, in the city. According to the Fishers Police Dept., the city has an ordinance addressing the use of fireworks. FPD said it strongly recommends residents familiarize themselves with the specific types of fireworks as well as the dates and times when fireworks can be displayed. Indiana law restricts the use of fireworks to the user’s property or on the property of someone who has consented to the use of fireworks on his or her property The Fishers Police Dept. stated in a news release that it “encourages the safe and lawful use of consumer fireworks. Voluntary compliance is appreciated; however, enforcement action may be taken for repeat and/or reckless violators.” To ensure residents don’t end up in an emergency room for a fireworks accident or with a ticket in hand for violation of the ordinance, FPD has the rules and definitions to provide clarity of the ordinance to consumers. What constitutes a firework? A small firework that is designed primarily to produce visible effects by combustion and that is required to comply with the construction, chemical composition and labeling regulations promulgated by the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission under 16 CFR 1507. The term also includes various small devices designed to produce an audible effect, such as whistling devices, ground devices containing 50 milligrams or less of explosive composition and aerial devices containing 130 milligrams or less of explosive composition. Propelling or expelling charges consisting of a mixture of

charcoal, sulfur and potassium nitrate are not considered as designed to produce an audible effect. Consumer fireworks include but may not be limited to the following: • Aerial devices, which include sky rockets, missile type rockets, helicopter or aerial spinners, Roman candles, mines and shells. • Ground audible devices, which include firecrackers, salutes and chasers. • Firework devices containing the aforementioned combinations of the effects. What is excluded? The list … • Model rockets • Toy pistol caps • Emergency signal flares • Matches • Fixed ammunition for firearms • Ammunition components intended for use in firearms, muzzle-loading cannons, or small arms • Shells, cartridges, and primers for use in firearms, muzzle-loading cannons, or small arms • Indoor pyrotechnics special effects material • M-80s, cherry bombs, silver salutes and any device banned by the federal government When and where may fireworks be discharged? It considered unlawful to use, display or permit to be used or displayed within Fishers’ municipal boundaries any type of consumer firework on any day or time other than the following: • Between the hours of 5 p.m. and two hours after sunset on June 29, June 30, July 1, July 2, July 3, July 5, July 6, July 7, July 8 and July 9. • Between the hours of 10 a.m. and midnight July 4.

ESSAY

HUMOR

False alarms?

The truth of it is

Commentary by Terry Anker

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

“This is so very important that nothing else matters! Our ends assuredly justify the means. We are smart people. We have spent some time thinking about this problem. And we know that we have the only correct solution.” So goes the narrative. Agree with us, or those opposing are open to all manner of attack, polite or otherwise. Many imagine that others, with differing points of view, are stupid, evil and deserving of rebuke. It is all so very convenient to dismiss them, to vilify those who are otherwise not villains. Truly, there are a handful of critical realities where personal space must be allowed. But do we often restrain the behavior of other adults only to force them to conform with our current state of mind? History is littered with tales of our certainty gone wrong. Countless heretics died only to be proven correct only a few years later, small consolation. Still, we collectively tolerate the intolerance. Social media is rife with the clarion call: This is so important that the rules don’t apply; I’m so important that the rules don’t apply; I’m in such an emotional state that the rules don’t apply. Even so, isn’t there some value in adhering to a minimum standard? When are we able to suspend social order? How extreme must be the case? Have we slid too deep into the morass when we each decide what we can say to others and not to what we will allow them to say to us? When words are called violence and legislative votes are called murder, how do we confront actual violence and actual murderers? Are they the same thing? If we find ourselves always on high alert, when do we start ignoring the sounding of the alarm? Are we destined to miss a genuine warning?

Summer is in full swing, and I for one am already doing my darndest to hide from my children. I know, I know — some of you are already screaming, “You’re such a terrible mother!” But really, I’m just being honest, and I think most parents will appreciate my perspective: It’s all fun and games until it’s not, somewhere around mid-June. Sure, those first couple of weeks are grand. My coeds are home from school, we’re enjoying the laidback vibes of late mornings and no real schedules, and the flighty Indiana weather is finally cooperating. Our six-pack is generally kind to one another, and in the spirit of family reunited, we ignore the irritating idiosyncrasies of each other. But like our usually low Meijer bill, harmony will not last. Now, all I can do is focus on the noise and the mess and the never-ending loads of laundry. I get swept up in their sibling drama and inevitable boredom and pleas for cash. I can’t get a single moment to myself because someone, somewhere always seems to need me. Why? Did I not raise you to be independent? Go. Away. Too soon I find myself longing for August, when my time and my house will once again become my own. When communication with my darling offspring will equate to periodic check-ins via FaceTime. When I can return to an “outof-sight, out-of-mind” mentality and not obsess over the occasional bad choices my young adults will most certainly make. When a half-gallon of milk has a decent chance of expiring in the fridge. Terrible mother? Probs. But at least I’m honest. Peace out.

READER’S VIEW

There is hope for those living with Alzheimer’s disease Editor, I am one of the estimated 110,000 Hoosiers currently living with Alzheimer’s disease. June is Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month, and I would like to share a bit of my experience to help others understand this disease. • It is possible to live well with dementia. Being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s is life changing. When in the early stage of the disease, we can still function independently and continue doing the activities we enjoy. • If you want to know how I am doing, just ask me. I have shared my knowledge and experience with friends and family. Their prayers have helped me live and work through my diagnosis. Though I may sometimes forget your name, please know I still appreciate you asking how I am doing. • Understand that sometimes words and actions of people with Alzheimer’s are not how we would choose to act. There are times where I may interrupt you because I am worried I will forget what I want to say in that moment. As dementia progresses, we may experience anxiety, aggression and confusion. You can learn about what to expect by visiting the Alzheimer’s Association website at alz.org. • Dementia and Alzheimer’s are well-defined illnesses. They differ from the challenges with memory due to aging. Talk with your doctor to get proper testing. • There is hope! Dementia and Alzheimer’s researchers have made incredible advancements. I am grateful to currently be involved in a clinical trial. If interested, talk with your doctor about available studies. Once again, know that help is available. Many people who are living with the disease and their caregivers feel like they are alone, but there are free resources available. Call the free 24/7 Helpline at 800-272-3900.

too old to choose to help save and heal lives. Educate yourself and talk to your family and friends while considering your decision. There is an abundance of educational information on the Donate Life Indiana website, including informative videos that explain the organ donation process and share why donation is so critical to saving lives. When you decide to sign up, you can do so immediately at donatelifeindiana.org or you can register to become a donor the next time you are at your local Bureau of Motor Vehicles branch. Finally, once you choose to be a donor hero, make sure you share your decision with your family, so they know your wishes. That is a very important step to ensuring the donation process is a comforting one for your family. It is my hope you will say “yes” to becoming an organ and tissue donor because the need is great. Not everyone can be a donor, even if they register. But registering is the first step. Being an organ and tissue donor, no matter your age, can be your legacy. Giving the gift of life is truly the greatest gift you can ever give. Kellie Tremain has served as president and CEO of Indiana Donor Network since December 2012. She is the third CEO of Indiana Donor Network since it was formed in 1987. As CEO, Tremain champions the organization’s mission to save and enhance as many lives as possible through organ, tissue and eye donation.

IU HEALTH EMPLOYEES GET LIFE-SIZE LOOK AT EXPANSION PLANS

From left, Dr. Karen Gallagher, OB/GYN with IU Health Physicians Women’s Health; Sarah Wenzel, labor and delivery nurse at IU Health North Hospital; and Nick Slater, architect with MSKTD, look at tentative room design plans and discuss possible improvements for the $287 million expansion of IU Health Saxony, soon to be known as IU Health Fishers.

2011 DADillac For Sale On March 17, 2022, our dad was called home to begin his eternal life free of pain and illness. What he left behind was a family who loved him, friends that will miss him and a legacy of memories that we can never forget. One of his items for which we are seeking a new home is his car that he cherished. He owned a 2011 Cadillac DTS which was his pride and joy. Having grown up and raised his family in a town dominated by General Motors, his goal was to “Climb the Ladder” as he would say regarding the GM family of cars. In the 1960s, he kept the garage occupied with Chevys and Pontiacs. In 1973, he graduated to Oldsmobiles, and they dominated the rest of the ‘70s. Always, he kept his eye on the Cadillac one day being the ultimate prize. Then, in 1985 he made it to the top when he was able to buy a used 1982 Eldorado. From that day forward, the only car he steered was a Cadillac. He liked the big ones, primarily Sedan Deville because, “You are always safer in a big car.” He liked to run them through car washes regularly because “A clean car always seems to run better.” We have had his 2011 DTS Sedan checked out by a master technician and a local tire store in Carmel. Both said that this would be a good used car for anyone looking for size and a little old-school styling. Includes Dad’s 2006 Rand McNally Road Atlas at no additional cost.

YAP students show versatility in cabaret show By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Abigail Judy is finding a lot to like about her first Young Artists Program experience with Civic Theatre. PERFORMANCE “What I love most is getting the opportunity to work with such great directors and meeting new people,” said Judy, who will be a Carmel High School junior in August. The YAP’s “REVUE!” is set for 6 and 8 p.m. June 28 at the Studio Theater at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. “My favorite number that I’ve learned so far is ‘Holding Out for a Hero,’” Judy said. “The music is super fun and we do a lot of really great harmonies. The people in this number are super fun to work with and I think it will be one to the best.” One challenge is learning the numbers because rehearsals didn’t start until earlier this month. “It takes a lot of hard work and commitment to learn everything and put it all together in such a short amount of time,” she said. Anne Beck serves as YAP director. Johnna Tavianini is the music director and Kenny Shepard is the director. All three are Ball State University colleagues. “Kenny and Johnna are a power couple when it comes to putting this show together,” Beck said. “They are both a wealth of knowledge of musical theater songs from all kinds of shows. They always put together an amazing mix of songs people know along with ones not so well known to educate the audience and enlighten us with great material not as well known. “This year they did it again and Johnna also has put together some fabulous mash-ups. She is extraordinary at that.” Beck said there is an array of soloists in this year’s cast of 13. “So, it is an exciting year for the show chock full of such great talent,” Beck said. Tavianini said Shepard came up with creative questions for cast members based on some overlying, universal themes that all have to do with being teenagers.

“By using their responses, he crafted a personalized script with the music that we’ve chosen supporting the stories that our cast members are going to share with the audience,” Tavianini said. This is Tavianini’s second year as music director for “REVUE!” “This year and last year I have been just blown away with the work ethic of the young cast and am immensely proud to see the steady growth in each of them as performers,” Tavianini said. “I love being able to set the bar high and getting to take them all by the hand and help them get there.” Tavianini said part of her job as music director is to make sure that all cast members sing music that supports their stories. “I love writing the arrangements and personalizing the music to serve the group in front of me,” Tavianini said. Tavianini and Shepard worked together for the first time last year on “REVUE!” “We are all so lucky to have Johnna on board,” Shepard said. “She really is a genius at making these young artists sound like stars while propelling their unique

stories through music.” Having only 10 rehearsals is a challenge to learn all the songs and monologues, Shepard said. “Another challenge, which I love, is making sure each artist’s voice is heard and each story is told authentically,” he said. “All 13 of them answered a long list of questions for me, and I took their experiences about social media, dating, family, friendships, bullying and other topics and wrote a script, often using their words verbatim as monologues.” Shepard said the song “Children Will Listen” from “Into The Woods” is powerful. “The lyrics and Johnna’s arrangement work so well to further the stories many of them are telling,” Shepard said. “These performers are very brave sharing personal experiences about racism, dating as a member of the transgender community and being bullied. I respect their honesty and openness more than I can say. The social media section is also an eye-opener to me. These teenagers communicate and validate each other in ways that are so foreign to other generations.”

Actors Theatre of Indiana Live will present Darrin Murrell and John Vessels in “Just A Couple of Fools: A Vaudeville Cabaret!” at 7:30 p.m. June 23 at Feinstein’s Cabaret at the Hotel Carmichael in Carmel. For more, visit feinsteinshc.com.

Mystery spoof set at Red Barn By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com “Murdered to Death” suits Luke McLaughlin just fine. “I enjoy the murder mysTHEATER tery genre and it has a comedic spin to it as well,” said McLaughlin, who is directing the production at the Red Barn Summer Theatre. “I enjoy putting those two things together. As an English teacher, there are a lot of references to classic literature and Agatha Christie that I appreciate and enjoy.” “Murdered to Death” runs June 22 through July 2 at the Frankfort venue. The show is a spoof of the Agatha Christie whodunit genre set in an English Manor. “It’s a fun script, a nice mix of mystery and comedy,” said McLaughlin, a Frankfort resident who teaches at Clinton Prairie High School. “I’ve seen it on a stage before and when I saw it, I thought this is a great show I wanted to either direct or be in one day.” McLaughlin is pulling double duty. McLaughlin, Red Barn’s associate artistic director, is one of the two male leads in the

production of “Deceiving Granny,” which was set to end June 19. McLaughlin saw the play at Frankfort High School several years ago. Michael Taylor, Red Barn’s artistic director and a Frankfort High School theater teacher, directed the high school production.

A history of Rome’s Egyptian obelisks Commentary by Don Knebel Today, in the continuing series about Rome, we look at its obelisks, eight of which have connections to TRAVEL three religious traditions. More than 4,000 years ago, Egyptians began carving obelisks, weighing up to 400 tons and standing up to 150 feet high, from single blocks of granite. Egyptian temples featured two matching obelisks at the entrances, their gradually sloping sides and pyramidal tops symbolizing the divine connection between Egyptian pharaohs and the sun god. When the Romans gained control of Egypt in 30 B.C., they began taking down the obelisks and transporting them on specially built ships to Rome, where they reerected them with an ingenious system of ropes and pulleys. The first obelisk taken to Rome was erected by Emperor Augustus at the center of Circus Maximus, symbolizing the divine connection between Augustus and the Roman gods. After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, all but one of the Egyptian obelisks eventually toppled and broke apart. Beginning in the 16th century, popes restored and moved eight obelisks brought from Egypt and topped them with Christian crosses and symbols of the pope. The best known is the 84-foot-tall obelisk now in St. Peter’s Square, the only one that never toppled. The largest Egyptian obelisk, about 150 feet tall and the last to be brought to Rome, is now located across from the Archbasilica of Saint John Lateran. Another Egyptian obelisk is now located in Piazza del Rotonda, just outside Rome’s famous domed PUBLIC NOTICE: Cellco Partnership and its controlled affiliates doing business as Verizon Wireless (Verizon Wireless) proposes to build a 36-foot Public Lighting Communications Structure.
