I received a notice yesterday that we have been selected to be part of the the IEDC’s 2o18 Century and Half-Century Award Class. Figured I’d better go ahead and apply now since the award may not be around in 10 years when our Century in business rolls around. Plus I probably won’t be here to fill out the paperwork in 10 years! (I need to change our tagline on the home page! We’re at 90 years now!)
It’s particularly remarkable for Easterday Construction to make this milestone as a family business. Very few family businesses make it past the 2nd generation, let alone into the 4th as we have. I’m sure that Great Grandpa Easterday didn’t plan for this since he didn’t even bother to keep the records of our actual start date!
Those of us working here now can only take a little of the credit, as we’re standing on the shoulders of those that came before us. I will be honoring them when I accept this award.
So I get to go down to the Statehouse on April 11th to receive the award. Maybe I’ll get a photo op with Governor Holcomb… or maybe Henry! I’ll report back here afterwards.

Jay,
I’m planning to put up a sign soon. No brochures yet. Not sure how I will handle that since almost everyone does everything online. I am working on signing up a rental agent. Just have to complete the paperwork. The units will be 12 month rentals. The starting rate for the 2 bedroom units will be $850/month. I am considering allowing dogs, but only ones that are insurable. There will be a pet deposit for those.
Thanks for the kudos! Glad you like them. They are geared towards entry level workers, but I still wanted them to be nice.
Currently I have no plans to extend Clymax Street. It’s just been convenient to walk in that way since Dad owns that lot. I don’t think he wants to give that up, so the extension is unlikely. I don’t see that it would benefit the development. Unlike the other PUD working it’s way through the approval process, mine will have two connections to town and won’t be highway access only. I want this to be part of the Culver Community.

Keven,
Happy to hear that the road will NOT be an extension here.
Windows are in & the building looks really good. One word describes it … elegant.
