This place is not like Flix where you can dine while you watch. The website had what I thought was a limited menu (hot dogs, chicken egg rolls, mozzarella sticks) but when we got there, they didn't even have that. It was pretzels, nachos or popcorn/candy. Also the seats were rocking chairs which doesn't compare to the AMC recliners and they had a velvet seat cover that looks like they haven't been cleaned in YEARS. I mean the arm rests we're so gross looking I didn't even want my arm to touch it. No thanks. Too much money and too many other better options to put up with that. Not to mention trying to find parking at the mall... Hard pass.

It was built in 2011 and is a memorial that features a monument dedicated to those who have served in the armed forces and is the home to our annual Memorial Ceremony. Around the base of the monument you will find the logos of all the uniformed services and Fisher's Police and Fire Departments. They each lead to one of the points on the six-point star that the monument sits on. There are benches in the area for visitors to sit and reflect. The monument itself has different sized granite slabs with stars on the and the tallest one having an eagle on top of it and the inscription, "Liberty Plaza, Proclaim Liberty Throughout the Land, Unto All the Inhabitants Thereof." The monument sits in a functional fountain, which is laid upon the six point star. The city holds its annual Memorial and Veterans Day ceremonies here. There is a decent amount of free parking on streets near the Plaza and there is a parking garage nearby. This place is very well maintained and nicely done. This is a good stop to make if you are in the area, but I would probably not make it a destination stop. So, to all the veterans and public servants out there, thank you for your service.

I was looking at a map of the Meridian Hills area and saw "Second Presbyterian Church Labyrinth" as…read moreone of the landmarks. Say what? A labyrinth in Indianapolis? My interest was piqued and I set off to check it out. Turns out, my good Yelp buddy Richard P. has already visited this labyrinth and wrote a way better review of it than this one I'm writing right now. So read his review. Then, go and visit this labyrinth. You'll find it easily when you enter the church parking lot -- just follow the signs for "Children's Circle." I'll have to come back with my children, because I think they'd have fun walking on the labyrinth and getting to the center. It's a nice little spot with some boulders to climb on, and some benches to sit on, if you wish. It's located right off the church parking lot, but tucked into a little nook with trees, so it's definitely a place where you could find peace and quiet. It's really neat that there's a free place in Indy where you can mediate while walking on a labyrinth, and find a little time to yourself outdoors.

By now, it's no secret that I love labyrinths. I visit them regularly and the labyrinth at Second…read morePresbyterian Church is among my favorites in the state of Indiana. A relatively new labyrinth, this labyrinth was developed in 2013 as part of the over 180-year-old church's 175th anniversary celebration. This is an outdoor labyrinth built in concrete within one of Second Church's grassy areas. It's publicly accessible and other than during events held at the labyrinth is open for use. Rev. Gracie Payne, a former Lake Fellow at the church and now Director of Young Adults, led the development of a prayer guide for the labyrinth that is available on the church's website. The outdoor labyrinth is designed in the classic tradition similar to that of the one at Chartres Cathedral in France. While it's just a touch too narrow for full-on wheelchair use, the labyrinth is easily wheelchair accessible with a pathway that is smooth. I've had no difficulty following the labyrinth's paths - I simply go a bit outside the lines (which pretty much sums up my life anyway). This labyrinth is in an inspired location. It's easily accessible within the city, there's plenty of parking, it's a generally safe area (in fact, I often see police cars in the parking lot), and yet it's a fairly wooded lot offering a peaceful place for prayer and meditation. Second Church does periodically hold labyrinth-based events and the website is a great place to look for those. Currently, they are asking labyrinth users to wear a mask if 2 or more are using the labyrinth. There's also a bench where you can sit and reflect here, as well. Otherwise, this is a simple yet beautiful labyrinth and definitely one of my favorites.

It is 30 feet tall and the city commissioned Quincy Owens and Luke Crawley of Owens + Crowley to construct the piece. In 2019 They wanted it to be an iconic landmark for the new Midtown plaza area. The three towing structures resemble sails of a ship, hence the name. They definitely do stick out. It is located along the Monon Trail and I saw it from far away. I liked the way the sun beamed through the colored glass and it's humongous size. It demanded my attention. There is free street parking available all along the section of the trail that the sculpture is located. It I may be difficult to find a spot though, so be prepared to walk. There are a few spots that are across from the sculpture and are designated as 20 minute parking. That is where I parked. You have a real good chance of snagging one of those spots. And I doubt you will be there longer than 20 minutes, so you should be good. As with most sculptures that I have visited and reviewed, this is probably not a very long stop. I was there less than 5 minutes and tht includes me being hypnotized by the light hinting through the sculpture's colored glass. You may want to consider planning out additional stops at many of the other attractions in the area, or making this stop part of a larger itinerary to maximize your time and trip. There is another piece on the trail and nearby roundabouts that would be perfect to start with.
