Washington Park (Indianapolis)
Washington Park (formally Washington Baseball Park) was the name of two different minor league baseball parks in Indianapolis, Indiana, in the early twentieth century. They were used primarily by the Indianapolis Indians before that club moved to Perry Stadium in 1931. History The first Washington Park was at 3001 East Washington Street where it meets Gray Street (). That ballpark was built in 1900 in the southwest corner of that intersection. Initially it was the home of the Indianapolis entry in the then-minor American League. A photo of "Washington Park, the new ball grounds" in the ''Indianapolis News'' on March 27, 1900, reveals an all-wood, temporary-looking structure.

In 1902 the American Association's Indianapolis Indians moved into this facility and stayed there for three seasons. It later became the site o ...
