The structure was built as a residence for the Alvin S. Lockard family.A native of Cincinnati, Lockard (1868-1930) came to Indianapolis in 1891. Shortly thereafter he became secretary and treasurer of D.P. Erwin & Company, a wholesale dry goods house. He retired from this business to become affiliated with Mais Truck Company and Premium Motor Car Company, manufacturers of motor cars and trucks. Lockard was an enthusiastic sportsman and is credited with building the first golf course in the city - now the Woodstock Country Club - in 1894. Also active in civic affairs, he was a member of the Board of Trade and the Chamber of Commerce. Lockard lived in the home until his death in 1930. Subsequently, it was divided into apartments.Old Northside Historic Area Preservation Plan, 1979 single-family dwelling |
