Rubush and Hunter was a well-known Indianapolis architectural firm founded in 1905. It designed almost two hundred buildings in Indianapolis, Florida and the Midwest. The partnership replaced many buildings on Monument Circle in the early 1900's. Fraternal and social clubs were their early primary clients. In addition, they designed many public buildings. Many of their buildings achieved national significance. Preston C. Rubush was born in Fairfield, Indiana in 1867. He studied at the University of Illinois. He came to Indianapolis in the 1890s and went into business with J.H. Scharn. After a few years Mr. Scharn retired and Edgar O. Hunter became Mr. Rubush's partner.
