South Street Square Park
Park
👍👍 Absolutely one of the cleanest places in Indianapolis. Sprinklers are going on and off in different parts of the Square. Totally awesome views in every direction you look. No trash, no weeds, green grass, the sound of the sprinklers spraying the mist.
Definitely a five star.
Thanks SOUTH STREET SQUA...

The grounds just continuously get better. Took some more great shots out there today, just gotta g...

Wallet Island
Park
👍👍 A cool place. Only land part of the time. As long as you don't swim in the water, or expose it to open wounds, you're mostly fine. DFTBA.

Idle Park
Park
👍👍 I give this place five stars (rare for me) because it goes against the grain of everything. It’s hidden, yet it stands out. It’s easy to overlook, yet hard to forget. It has a simple name, yet a distinction all of its own. Indianapolis isn’t known as a quirky city, but this small park puts Indy on t...

Herron-Morton Place Park
Park
👍👍 Very nice play ground, well maintained. It's also only a seven minute drive from the nearby hospital. It has a good amount of benches and picnic tables, and the park is gated all around, except for the entrance. There are two larger grassy areas that are great for kids to play, and it is nicely shad...

Park
👍👍 Beautiful scenic point of downtown with flowing water. Feels so nice to have a seat with the view, there is walk way to other side of river beside museum. Loved the walk surrounded by rocks, beautiful bridge(no public vehicles allowed). Beautiful and elegant.

Killer Rapids
Park
👍 Good rapids with some decent fishing in the surrounding areas. Only gave four stars because it in fact did not kill us going over in a flat bottom boat.

Landmark for Peace Memorial
Park
👍👍 I'll point out that RFK's Indianapolis speech immediately following the assassination of Martin Luther Ming, Jr., can be found on YouTube; and Wikipedia has a long article about the delivery of that speech in Indianapolis. Otherwise, I'll simply post some photographs of this small sub-section of the...

Great Oak Commons
Park
👍 Smallish park most notable for its central circular fountain, and its unusual small section for the blind (w/ "fragrant, textured, and colorful plants.")
Also a gazebo; drinking fountain; and a "sidewalk book library."
Park is "owned and maintained" by the Old Northside Foundation, tho open to pub...
