Things To Do
Massachusetts Avenue
Massachusetts Avenue, or simply Mass Ave, is one of six designated cultural districts in Indianapolis, Indiana. It is located just a few blocks northeast of Monument Circle. Mass Ave is known for being the "Art District" of Indy and is filled with many awesome bars and restaurants. Our favorite restaurants on Mass Ave are The Eagle, Bakersfield, and Forty Five Degrees. The Eagle is known for their amazing fried chicken and Mac 'n' cheese. Bakersfield is known for their fresh (and strong) margaritas and unique 3-cheese queso. Forty Five Degrees has AMAZING and fresh sushi with signature cocktails.
Monument Circle
The beloved Monument Circle is the true heart of Downtown Indianapolis. Often filled with life on the lunch hour or during one of the many events that happen year round, it's truly a must-see for anyone visiting the Circle City. Check out the observation deck at the top of Soldiers and Sailors Monument. Admission is Free if you walk the stairs or $2 to take the elevator ($1 for kids age 6 - 18). The Soldiers & Sailors Monument also houses the Colonel Eli Lilly Civil War Museum on the lower level and a small gift shop at promenade level. The Columbia is located on the circle!!!!
