Apartments for Rent in Herron-Morton Place - Indianapolis

When the Civil War began, the area was used as a staging area and later as a prisoner of war camp for Confederate soldiers. After the war, it became the fairgrounds again and remained the site of the state fair until 1890, when it was platted for residential development.
