About this map

The White River and the Indianapolis Water Company Canal define the urban geography of West Indianapolis, carving a path through established neighborhoods and major sports venues. This 2013 survey provides a clear look at the city's recreational and cultural hubs, including the world-renowned Indianapolis Motor Speedway and the Indiana State Fairgrounds. The map documents the intricate residential fabric of the city, from the historic island community of Rocky Ripple to the specialized planned landscape of Woodruff Place.

Infrastructure and sports dominate the central corridor, where Bush Stadium, Victory Field, and the modern Lucas Oil Stadium are situated alongside major thoroughfares like Michigan Rd and Lafayette Rd. Local history is preserved in the names of long-standing settlements such as Broad Ripple, Flackville, and Belmont, while the presence of the Soap Box Derby Racetrack and numerous golf courses like Brickyard Crossing Golf Course illustrates the importance of public leisure spaces in this densely developed region.
