  1. Taylor is also commemorated with a State Historical Marker on the south end of the new Monon Trail bridge over 38th St, as well as an Indy Parks trailhead sign on the Fall Creek Trail at the intersection with the Monon Trail. A true Indy legend that is finally getting the attention he deserves.

  2. There is a lot of Major Taylor Public Art in Indy! Baggage Claim at the Airport….. look at the back wall to the left. On the Cultural Trail at the IUPUI Campus. But the Mural on Washington St is the most outstanding. Sep 9 was named Major Taylor day by our Mayor at the Mural dedication. If you want to learn more about this great man, I recommend you google the New York Times Obituary about him.

    Taylor held the record at two (long gone) bicycle tracks near the Monon Bridge over 38th St. The Major Taylor Coalition is working to get that iconic bridge named for him.
