One of Indianapolis’ six Indianapolis Cultural Districts, Broad Ripple Village is conveniently connected to downtown by way of the Monon Trail. Only six miles north of downtown Indianapolis, the popular Broad Ripple Village is community oriented, yet frequently visited for its great nightlife and bars along Broad Ripple Avenue — whether you want to drink, dance, listen or play. For a great concert venue, try The Vogue. Or, if you’re in the mood to shop, check out unique boutiques such as the Artifacts Gallery or The Bungalow.

Just a stone’s throw away from downtown, Queen Anne and Federal-style homes fill this historic Indianapolis neighborhood. Some houses date all the way back to 1855 as Lockerbie Square is Indianapolis’ oldest, intact residential area. You can see the former home of Hoosier-poet John Gilmore Riley at the Riley Museum. Serving American and Irish grub for more than 60 years, Lockerbie Pub is one of Indianapolis best restaurants.

Trendy and eclectic Fountain Square attracts both families and singles. Families flock here for the spacious lofts while empty-nesters lay ground here for its retro feel. Also one of the six Indianapolis Cultural Districts, Fountain Square residents can easily walk or bike to downtown Indianapolis via the Indianapolis Cultural Trail. Southeast of downtown Indianapolis, Fountain Square prides itself for its art — from live music to art galleries. Located in the historic G.C. Murphy Building, the Murphy Art Center hosts five galleries, 23 artists’ studios, art supplies and restaurants.

Once home to Pulitzer prize-winning author Booth Tarkington and currently Butler University, Butler-Tarkington continues to flourish northwest of downtown Indianapolis. With the university at its core, cheer on the bulldogs at Hinkle Fieldhouse or see a show at Clowes Memorial Hall. Once an area filled primarily with farms and orchards, this area is known for its parks and recreational areas, diversity and nice homes.

The first African-American neighborhood to be listed in the National Register of Historic Places in Indiana, the mantra of Indiana Avenue is, “It’s Rhythm. Reborn.” Also one of the six Indianapolis Cultural Districts, Indiana Avenue anchors Central Canal and White River State Park. Bordered by downtown Indianapolis’ technology district, 16 Tech, housing options include apartments and single-family homes. But more than that, this west downtown neighborhood is where music, history, spirituality and education combine.

North of downtown Indianapolis, Carmel furnishes both locally- and nationally-recognized shops at the Clay Terrace Shopping Center. The goal for Carmel was to expand upon the arts. And expand they did. From Carmel Arts & Design District to the Palladium, and farmers markets to art festivals, this well-ranked city is sure to please your creative side.
