Photo Walk Tonight: Crowne Plaza

So, we have a photo walk scheduled for tonight. Rock. On. We’re meeting at 6pm at Crowne Plaza. But not just anywhere. Cambrie Anderson, who arranged this opportunity for us, passed along the following instructions:

Everyone will need to enter Union Station [huge red brick building] through the double green doors off Illinois Street.  The doors are located underneath the overpass which is north of South Street and just south of the Omni Severin; these doors are on the west side of the building.  They should not try to enter the doors on the north side of the building, underneath the stained glass window [this is across the circle drive from the Omni].  Also, they will not be able to get to the Grand Hall if they enter over by Cadillac Ranch.

If anyone is unsure where it is, there is no physical address, so they can just put the Crowne Plaza Hotel into their GPS [123 W. Louisiana St., Indianapolis, 46225].  If they are at the front doors of the hotel, they will just walk across Illinois Street and enter through the double green doors.

The closest / cheapest parking option would probably be either Pan Am garage or any of the mall parking.

If that’s all a bit abstract for you, I found the doors she means on Google Street View, which’ll also give you a hand approximate address and driving instructions. Click here to map it.

Now, communications: If you have problems finding us, try the following:

And, if you’re still not on the mailing list, shoot me an email at dmartin@robertsimaging.com and I’ll get you added.

See you all at 6!

 



Moving The Blog, Photo Contests Down, No June Contest

So, lots of news all at once. The photo contest has been so popular of late it’s been causing our former host for the blog to groan under the strain. You may have noticed rolling service brownouts. I sure did. So, we’re moving the blog to a new, more stable host (it’s actually here already), but, in the process, some things will be broken until they aren’t. One of those things is the contest itself, ironically. But, I’m going to spend the next week or two getting those back up and going, and rather than have a rushed and short-running theme, we’re just taking June off. You can get some rest, we can get caught up, and we’ll all meet back here in July for a big old awesome contest, right? Right.
