History of the Building:

The three-story building was built to house the J.G. Heylmann Wagon & Carriage Works.  The structure is especially notable for a system of ramps connecting the basement level to the upper floors for ease of mobility as the vehicle moved through the construction process.  Heavy loads were placed on the floor system, so substantial timbers were used to support the interior framework.  

In 1935 the building was sold to Phoebe Hudler and became home to the Hudler Press, Inc.  For almost 65 years the Hudler family published the weekly Noblesville Times, originally known as the Hamilton county Times and established in 1871.  They also provided printing and office supplies to clients.
