It was the heart of Terre Haute's city and the epicenter of social activities like formal dances, parties and conventions that brought the members of the community together. The Terre Haute House was a historic hotel located in downtown Terre Haute, at the northeast corner of 7th and Wabash.
Important and famous people like the US 35th president John F. Kennedy, Al Capote and others hosted at the Terre Haute House.
Despite numerous efforts to preserve it, the building was demolished and replaced by a Hilton Gardenn Inn Hotel.
It's frustrating to know that buildings that were unique treasures of Terre Haute have been demolished or torn down. Why was this building demolished instead of remodeled like our college of Education?
