109 [S2E12]: Duncan Campbell, the Eminence Grise of Historic Preservation in Bloomington

Duncan Campbell is an advisory member of the city's Historic Preservation Commission, and before that was a voting member for its first 16 years. He's also a former professor of architecture, planning and preservation at Ball State University, where he directed the graduate program in historic preservation. We talk with him about the background and history of preserving buildings, the definition of historic districts, how the preservation of buildings has played out in Bloomington over the past several decades, and the story of how he came to his profession. 

Also in this show: a Last Pitch about the Council's annual high-stakes choice in the game that is the annual city budget.
