Indianapolis Intersections - Morris, Plainfield, Vandalia

As most of you can probably guess, I love taking pictures of Infrastructure (ie. railroad bridges, underpasses, intersections, mediums that transport various forms of utilities, ect). Especially the odd ones; the older and weirder, the better. This one definitely falls into that category.

This is the joining of Morris Street, Plainfield Avenue, and Vandalia Avenue which is bisected by an ancient looking railroad bridge on the city's west side; you can see a map of how it's laid out here. This neighborhood is an industrial one, as is a large part of Indianapolis' near west side.

This bridge stands right in the middle of this 4-way intersection.


Looking Easterly toward Vandalia Avenue from Morris Street with the cross tunnel to the South.

Looking North through the tunnel at Morris Street and Vandalia Ave.


Morris Street to the East, Plainfield Ave. to the West and the tunnel to the North.
