Saw this today, and thought it was too cool not to pass along:

[Indiana’s oldest city is Vincennes, founded in 1732, and it’s here that you’ll find the two oldest buildings in the state. Your pick will depend on whether you go by the date construction started, or when it was completed. Grouseland, constructed from 1802 to 1804, was built for William Henry Harrison, the first governor of the Indiana Territory. Just around the block, work began on the Indiana Territorial Capitol in 1800, and lasted until 1805.]
