1907 Fountains in Woodruff Place Indianapolis Indiana
1907 lithograph postcard of the fountains in Woodruff Place in Indianapolis, Indiana. The esplanades with fountains and statuary defined Indianapolis's first planned residential suburb. The fountains remain a symbol of elegance and refinement for the city, with a ball, The Fountain Ball, taking its inspiration from the fountains of this historic neighborhood.
The Fountains of Woodruff Place were added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1972. In 2001, the neighborhood itself was officially designated a local historic preservation district by the City of Indianapolis.
