Indianapolis City Market has been serving local residents and businesses since 1886 and was listed on the
National Register of Historic Places in 1974. From 1886 to 1958 the area was also home to
Tomlinson Hall, a civic center which was located at the northeast corner Delaware and Market streets. After a devastating fire all that remains are the so-called '
Catacombs', the subterranean foundation of the hall.
Old Indianapolis City Hall sits at the south corner of Alabama and Ohio streets. Built in 1910, it served as city hall until 1962 when the
City-County Building opened. From 1962 to 2002, the building housed the
Indiana State Museum, later serving as the city's main library during construction on an addition to the nearby
Central Library. The building has been vacant since 2008. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. From 1974 through 2001,
Market Square Arena occupied a one-block area spanning Market Street. It was demolished to make way for new development that is now
Cummins Distribution Headquarters and the
360 Market Square apartments. The Indianapolis City Market and
Indianapolis Cultural Trail are located in the area. Since its designation in 2014, the area has added several new high-profile government, residential, and commercial entities including: • Julia M. Carson Transit Center (2016) • Cummins Distribution Headquarters and greenspace (2017) • St. Vincent Center (2017) • 360 Market Square (2018) • Richard G. Lugar Plaza (2018) ==Future==
