5. James Whitcomb Riley Home

Located in the quaint neighborhood of Lockerbie Square, this popular home was the estate of Indianapolis's own esteemed poet, James Whitcomb Riley. The house was built in the late 19th century and is furnished with antiques indicative of the era. Sightseers and historians are delighted to see the place Riley called home for 23 years. His room still features the writer's clothes and hats as well as an antique pen that he used.   (© 10Best)
