Hello! Welcome to Vintage Irvington. This blog is dedicated to documenting the neighborhood of Irvington in Indianapolis, Indiana. Founded in 1870, the community has a rich heritage. If you have photos of the neighborhood that you would like to share then please contact me! You may reach me at williamfranklingulde@gmail.com. I currently live in this beautiful "suburb" with its tall shade trees, historic homes, and winding streets. I also have a second blog dedicated to the history of my family. Enjoy!
