Bayard Park Neighborhood
Bayard Park Neighborhood, Historic residential district in Evansville, Indiana, US.
The Bayard Park neighborhood encompasses 87 acres with 335 buildings and features Queen Anne cottages, bungalows, and American Foursquare residences from different periods.
The district emerged in the late 19th century as Evansville expanded eastward, becoming the city's first planned residential development in 1893 with strict commercial restrictions.
The East Branch Library, constructed in 1912 with Carnegie funding, stands as an example of Beaux Arts Classicism architecture within the neighborhood.
The neighborhood boundaries extend from Lincoln Avenue to Washington Avenue and from US Highway 41 to Garvin Street, containing the first neighborhood park of Evansville.
Martha Orr Bayard donated ten acres in 1901 for the creation of the park under the condition it would bear her husband's name and she could design the landscaping.
