The Wyndham, Historic building in Indianapolis, United States.
The Wyndham is a seven-story, four-bay-wide Tudor Revival apartment building of multicolor brick, built in 1929. Its recessed central entrance has a pointed limestone arch, an oriel window spans the second and third floors, and the parapet carries four blind trefoil arches.
The Wyndham was built in 1929 as a 48-unit apartment building in Indianapolis. By 2015, when Pearl Companies bought it for $1.4 million, it stood almost vacant and deteriorated. Pearl spent $5.7 million on renovations, cutting the count to 37 larger units while keeping the former doorways and other interior details. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
The Wyndham's name and Tudor Revival styling tie it to the apartment-hotel fashion of the late 1920s. Its pointed limestone entrance arch, the detailed oriel window spanning the second and third floors, and a parapet with four blind trefoil arches are details a passerby can pick out from the street. Inside, doorways of the original 48 units remain after the 2015 conversion to 37 apartments.
The Wyndham stands at 39.78222, -86.15389 in Indianapolis, Indiana. It is a seven-story apartment building, not a museum, so the Tudor Revival facade, pointed limestone entrance arch, oriel window and trefoil parapet are what a passerby can see from the street; the 37 apartments inside are private residences.
When Pearl Companies renovated the building after buying it in 2015, the number of apartments fell from 48 to 37 as units were combined for more floor space. The doorways of the former units were kept, so old apartment entrances remain visible inside.
