Back in the mid-1800s, the Herron-Morton Place neighborhood was actually the site of the Indiana State Fair. 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.
