==Historic Irvington==
Founded in 1870 by Sylvester Johnson and Jacob Julian, Irvington was originally created as a suburban town of Indianapolis. It formed along winding roads of dirt and brick that reflected landscape design in the Romantic era. The town was built as a quiet suburb where artists, politicians, military generals, academics, and heads of local industry resided.〔http://www.intakeweekly.com/articles/1/027243-6781-160.html〕 In 1902 Irvington was annexed by Indianapolis.
Irvington is located five miles (8 km) east of downtown Indianapolis on the western edge of Warren Township. The neighborhood is situated on Washington Street, which is the route of the historic National Road, a National Scenic Byway. US 40 was formerly routed along the road. Through the early 1900s, a commuter rail/trolley system ran from Irvington to downtown Indianapolis along US 40.
Irvington is the largest locally protected historic district in Indianapolis - Marion County. The district includes roughly 2,800 buildings and about 1,600 parcels of land. 78.1% of Irvington homes were built before 1960.〔http://www.indystar.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/99999999/LOCAL180303/70213025&template=theme&theme=upclose_irvington〕 Irvington began petitioning its residents in 2001 through the efforts of the Historic Irvington Community Council initiated and led by Brian Boyd. The Irvington Historic District Neighborhood Plan was adopted by IHPC on October 4, 2006. Boyd was recognized by the Irvington Historical Society for his efforts with the 2003 Cottman Award for preserving Irvington History.
