Historic Meridian Park[2] is situated north of downtown Indianapolis and located within the larger Mapleton-Fall Creek neighborhood area.[3] The small, mainly residential section was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.[1]

The neighborhood began to be developed around the turn of the 20th century. It not only has a significant collection of American Craftsman or Arts & Crafts Style homes, but is also notable as one of Indianapolis's first suburbs.[4]
