Benjamin Harrison, the 23rd President of the United States, lived in the Old Northside Historic District, and his home is now a museum open to the public.
During the late 1800s, the district was known for its grand homes and was a prestigious address for the city's wealthy and influential families.
The district features a mix of architectural styles, including Italianate, Queen Anne, and Colonial Revival, reflecting the tastes of its original affluent residents.
Some homes in the district are believed to have been part of the Underground Railroad network, offering refuge to escaping slaves before the Civil War.
The district is one of several historic neighborhoods in Indianapolis that have been preserved to maintain the city's architectural heritage and cultural history.
