In 2016, the Fall Creek Place Foundation gathered input from neighbors and spearheaded an effort to create a master plan for the park. With the goal of creating a space that connects the natural environment with recreation and the arts, Craig Kids Memorial Park is a park unlike any other in Indianapolis, featuring walkways, performance areas, landscaping, a nature playscape and a unique art playscape where art pieces function as playground equipment. The park is a highlight of Fall Creek Place but also an attraction for residents from all over Indianapolis!

Fall Creek Place is a downtown Indianapolis neighborhood located just two miles north of Monument Circle, offering a mix of housing options in a walkable, bike-friendly setting. The area includes a blend of historic homes and newer construction, with properties ranging widely in price and style. Since 2001, the neighborhood has seen significant investment and redevelopment through a public-private initiative led by the City of Indianapolis and King Park Development Corporation. The area is now home to more than 400 households, with continued expansion underway. Residents enjoy proximity to downtown amenities, local businesses, parks, and trail systems that support an active lifestyle.

The neighborhood's location puts it within minutes of Mass Ave, the Monon Trail, and major employment and cultural destinations like Methodist Hospital, IUPUI, and the Indianapolis Cultural Trail. Local favorites include Goose the Market, Mashcraft Brewing, Gather 22, Bocca, and Baby's, as well as fitness studios and salons. Four neighborhood parks and nearby access to the Fall Creek Greenway encourage time outdoors, while streetscape upgrades — like new sidewalks, street lighting, and buried utilities — have contributed to its transformation into a connected and pedestrian-friendly place to live.

Fall Creek Place supports a strong sense of community with regular events such as neighborhood cleanups, seasonal celebrations, and block-wide yard sales. An active homeowners association and neighborhood patrol program contribute to resident engagement. With home prices ranging from under $100,000 to over $500,000 and a mix of income levels and housing types, Fall Creek Place reflects an intentional focus on inclusive development. The neighborhood continues to evolve, blending city living with residential character and expanding green space in a historic area of Indianapolis.
