4270 N. Meridian St.*

*One of the earliest remaining houses in the District. Built in 1911 for the Hare family,
this house exhibits both Tudor and Craftsman-influenced styles. From 1923 to 1946, it became the home of arguably Meridian Street's most famous resident, Booth Tarkington.
Tarkington was a two-time Pulitzer Prize winner. His novels were based on Indiana family life as in The Magnificient Ambersons.
