Irish Hill Indianapolis, IN

Enjoy great city views from this downtown neighborhood

Walkable Charming Historic

Snug between Holy Cross and Fountain Square, Irish Hill is as historic as its neighbors. Following Southeastern Avenue and extending south to roughly Bates Street, this tiny neighborhood is filled with shotgun houses, charming bungalows, and great views of the city skyline. Irish Hill dates back to 1850, when Irish immigrants settled the area. It is still one of the largest Irish-American communities in the Midwest.

With less than a mile to downtown, Irish Hill is convenient to all of Indy's attractions, including Easley Winery, Sun King Brewing, the Indianapolis City Market, and Banker's Life Fieldhouse. Irish Hill is home to the Indiana City Brewing Company, a brewery located in a historic pre-Prohibition bottling company.
