Back in the mid-1800s, the Herron-Morton Place neighborhood was actually the site of the Indiana State Fair. When the Civil War began, the area was used as a staging area and later as a prisoner of war camp for Confederate soldiers. After the war, it became the fairgrounds again and remained the site of the state fair until 1890, when it was platted for residential development.
Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Herron-Morton Place Historic District contains 574 historic homes ranging from Queen Anne Victorians to Tudor homes. Today, this charming neighborhood is home to the Herron School of Art and Design and hosts the Talbot Street Art Fair every summer. Herron-Morton Place is located between 22nd Street on the north side and 16th Street to the south. It extends along Pennsylvania Street east to Central Avenue.
