You would think a four term mayor of Fort Wayne, Indiana like Harry Baals wouldn't have a problem getting his name on a new government center.
"Unfortunately for everyone who is a huge fan of Baals, Fort Wayne city officials aren't too keen on naming the building after the esteemed former mayor. "We realize that while Harry Baals was a respected mayor, not everyone outside of Fort Wayne will know that," Deputy Mayor Beth Malloy told the Associated Press. "We wanted to pick something that would reflect our pride in our community beyond the boundaries of Fort Wayne."
