St. Vincent Historic Marker

The brick wall visible beyond the state historical marker is part of the perimeter wall that once surrounded this entire city block; much of the wall survives. The first location of St. Vincent's Infirmary stood on the other side of this section of the wall. This site is in the Lockerbie Square Historic District (1855-1930), which is listed both on the Indiana Register of Historic Sites and Structures and on the National Register of Historic Places. Some of the houses in Lockerbie Square were originally located here; others were relocated here to fill spaces that had been emptied by blight and urban destruction. The result is this Victorian neighborhood, which is highly regarded by preservation activists. Photo by Kurt Lee Nettleton, 2013.
