2021 - Jul 22 - 415 Lakeshore Drive Sale Could Pave Way for Culver Unsafe Building Fund July 22, 2021 Author Michael Gallenberger
    The recent sale of 415 Lakeshore Drive could help jumpstart an unsafe building fund for the Town of Culver. The town had to tear down what was left of the former City Tavern building after a fire in October of 2019. The proceeds from last month’s sheriff’s sale will reimburse the town’s demolition costs and other charges....

    The fire at 415 Lakeshore Drive remains under investigation by a grand jury, and authorities are asking for the public’s help in locating a person of interest, Scotty Van Hawk, 50. While there hasn’t been a charge in connection with the fire, Marshall County Prosecutor Nelson Chipman said last week that the case goes “beyond arson.”
