Indiana State Archives Building

450 W Ohio St, Indianapolis

Indiana State Archives Building

In 2021, Governor Holcomb and the Indiana State Legislature approved the construction of a new Indiana State Archives building that will house priceless documents and artifacts managed by the Indiana Archives and Records Administration. Located on the Indiana Government Center campus, the new Archives Building will be located along the downtown Indianapolis Canal Walk between Ohio and New York Streets. Close proximity to the Indiana State Library, the Indiana State Museum, and the Indiana History Center will create a synergy of state history and convenience for researchers.
