A National Register Historic District

Fort Wayne's Super-Subdivision since 1925

Welcome to Indian Village — a National Register Historic District nestled along the St. Mary’s River in the Waynedale area of Fort Wayne, Indiana. Originally developed in 1925 as “Fort Wayne’s Super-Subdivision,” our neighborhood features wide, curving, tree-lined boulevards designed by landscape architect Lawrence V. Sheridan, with streets named from Longfellow’s epic poem “Song of Hiawatha.” Nearly 500 homes span architectural styles from Tudor Revival and Spanish Colonial to Mid-Century Modern ranch homes.

The Indian Village Community Association is a voluntary neighborhood association run by an elected Board of Directors. We work to promote safety, organize events, and facilitate communication among residents and the surrounding community.
