Next, we head north on New York Street to 324 N. Park Ave.

A typical example of a working-class residence of the period, this home was built in 1863 by George Holler, a German immigrant and a plasterer by trade. It was purchased by the Historic Landmarks Foundation of Indiana in 1968, and restored in 1974-75 in conjunction with the Women in Construction Program. In 1975-76, it was utilized as the field office of the Greater Indianapolis Progress Committee and the Indianapolis Bicentennial Committee. It has been documented by the National Park Service's Historic American Buildings Survey.
