Butler-Tarkington is a neighborhood on the near northwest side of Indianapolis bounded by the Central Canal and Michigan Road, the west side of Meridian Street, 38th Street, and Westfield Boulevard. The neighborhood derives its name from Butler University and Pulitzer prize-winning Hoosier author Booth Tarkington, who lived at 4270 North Meridian Street from 1923 to 1946. Covering an area of roughly 930 acres, the neighborhood--which resulted from a consolidation of numerous nineteenth century farms and orchards--has remained a largely residential community.
