The North Meridian Street Historic District is a residential section along Meridian Street in Indianapolis, straddling the Butler–Tarkington and Meridian–Kessler neighborhoods. It holds 169 contributing buildings, including the separately listed William N. Thompson House and the Evan-Blankenbaker House of 1901.

The district developed between 1900 and 1936 as wealthy families built their homes along Meridian Street. Notable residences like the William N. Thompson House and the Evan-Blankenbaker House were constructed during this period and shape its character today.

You can view the homes best from the street, as most are open for exterior viewing. The area stretches over several blocks along Meridian Street, so plan time for a walking tour.

The separately listed William N. Thompson House stands within the district, while the other contributing houses carry dates such as 1901 for the Evan-Blankenbaker House, 1911 for the Hare-Tarkington House, 1922 for the Shea House, 1930 for the Sears-Townsend and Hugh Love houses, and 1932 for the Brant-Weinhardt House.
