The IHPC said it would use a comprehensive study performed by Indiana Landmarks in 2016 that identified 104 historic properties with LGBTQ significance. The historic preservation group’s criteria in compiling the list included civil rights, arts, health, businesses, residences, events, organizations, and name affiliations. — Indianapolis Business Journal
The move to imbed consideration of LGBTQ sites of historical significance in future planning efforts makes Indianapolis a pioneer for LGBTQ preservation in the country.
The city is currently working to update all of its 17 historic area plans and will now move to include the recommendations from the Indiana Landmarks study into those efforts.
Indianapolis aims to complete the planning updates by 2023.
