Linwood Colonial Apartments

Constructed between 1937 and 1938 by architects Pierre & Wright and the Moynahan Apartment Organization, the complex represents the evolution of urban residential architecture.

The National Register of Historic Places recognized this Colonial Revival property in 2006 for its contribution to Indianapolis architectural heritage.
