The Forgotten

I've featured many abandoned and forgotten areas of Indianapolis in this blog, but this area probably takes the proverbial cake! This area is located between College Avenue and Shelby Street, just south of Washington Street. Many of the streets located in this area were cut off or diverted to make room of I-65/70 and probably eventually lead to this area's downfall. Most of the area has been completely razed; only concrete slabs and foundations remain along the old brick streets.

I wonder how long this water main has been leaking into the nearby storm drain? On College and Maryland Street.

Railroad Underpass on College Avenue, just south of Washington Street.

Along Maryland Street, between College Avenue and Davidson Street.

Maryland Street is dead-ended here, and Davidson makes its way south to Washington Street.

Looking north on Davidson, toward Washington Street.

Ditched!

More rusty relics; on Pine Street.
