Eagle Creek Reservoir dominates the center of this landscape on the western edge of Indianapolis, showing the area just as the suburban and industrial expansion of the late 1960s was taking hold. The transition from rural Hendricks and Marion counties to an urbanizing network is evident in the residential additions like Farley's Addition and Chapel Hill, which sit in contrast to the older crossroads character of Clermont. Large-scale infrastructure projects of the era are prominent, including the Eagle Creek Dam, the Big Four Yard rail complex to the south, and the expansive Indianapolis Raceway Park.
