National Register of Historic Places listings in Center Township, Marion County, Indiana

This is a list of the National Register of Historic Places listings in Center Township, Marion County, Indiana.

This is intended to be a complete list of the properties and districts on the National Register of Historic Places in Center Township, Marion County, Indiana, United States. Latitude and longitude coordinates are provided for many National Register properties and districts; these locations may be seen together in a Google map.[1]

There are 225 properties and districts listed on the National Register in the county, including 8 National Historic Landmarks. Because Indianapolis is coextensive with Marion County, properties are listed by township rather than by city or town. Center Township is the location of 163 of these properties and districts, including 5 of the National Historic Landmarks; these properties and districts are listed here. Properties and districts in Marion County's other townships are listed separately. One district, the Indianapolis Park and Boulevard System, is split between Center Township and three other townships, and is thus included on both lists. Eight other properties, including seven in Center Township, were once listed but have been removed.

This National Park Service list is complete through NPS recent listings posted December 30, 2011.[2]

For about 1% of NRIS original coordinates, experience has shown that one or both coordinates are typos or otherwise extremely far off; some corrections may have been made. A more subtle problem causes many locations to be off by up to 150 yards, depending on location in the country: most NRIS coordinates were derived from tracing out latitude and longitudes off of USGS topographical quadrant maps created under the North American Datum of 1927, which differs from the current, highly accurate WGS84 GPS system used by Google maps. Chicago is about right, but NRIS longitudes in Washington are higher by about 4.5 seconds, and are lower by about 2.0 seconds in Maine. Latitudes differ by about 1.0 second in Florida. Some locations in this table may have been corrected to current GPS standards.
