Who we are

Historic Indianapolis apartments, reimagined for modern living

Indianapolis is a city that honors its history while looking forward — and we follow the same philosophy. Fordham & Ralston preserves and restores historic apartment buildings across the city, offering residents a living experience where vintage architecture meets contemporary design.

Many of our properties rose during Indianapolis' early 20th-century boom. We maintain their original bones — high ceilings, unique floor plans, timeless details — while upgrading interiors with modern finishes, in-unit conveniences, and reliable high-speed internet.
