Construction work on Butler Way

Description: Construction work is being done at the 46th Street and Sunset Avenue entrance to Butler University. Butler Way, the street that is being worked on in this photograph, is the main east and west road on campus. The house in the background of the photograph is on the opposite side of Sunset Avenue and the person in the road is standing on 46th Street. In Butler University: a Sesquicentennial History, George M. Waller writes that during this project a redesigned entrance to the campus, at 46th Street and Sunset Avenue, replaced the southern entrance, with Claredon Road terminating at Hampton Drive, thus eliminating streets from the mall.
