Neighbors says they would like to see a park on the property in the future.
Indy's Norwood communityKaila Austin, one of the people documenting that history, said it's home to one of the oldest and most stable Black neighborhoods in the country.
Part of that history involves a famous Black artist named John Hardrick. The land he used to own is now surrounded by barbed wire. Austin said after Hardrick died it became a coal storage site for Citizen's Energy, which has created some contamination issues on the property. Austin said neighbors are hoping the next chapter for the property will be something more family-friendly, like a park.
She said the community has been having conversations with Indy Parks about how to ensure the land will be safe enough for the park.
