REVIVING DOWNTOWN NEW ALBANY, ONE STEP AT A TIME

Meg and I moved two doors down from the Culbertson Mansion last summer. In between us was Culbertson West, previously occupied by the Redmen (who make the best chicken 'n' dumplins at Harvest Homecoming, I might add). We immediately started noticing on Friday and Saturday nights a ton of activity there. Turns out there's an extremely impressive reception hall, very recently renovated, in the back portion of the building.

As it turns out, the two gentlemen that have assumed control of Culbertson West also have bought up four other properties in a five block stretch of Main Street heading out of downtown. That includes two bed and breakfasts (the former Widows Home and the Box Tree Inn) and another reception hall, The Parthenon.

The name of their business is Third Century Services and from everything I've seen and heard, they run a first class organization at very competitive prices. I would highly recommend them to anyone getting married, organizing a class reunion, or throwing any other similar bash. With New Albany's downtown set for a revitalization, these fellows are ahead of the curve and setting the pace.
