Bridgeport is a neighborhood located in Indianapolis, Marion County, Indiana.[1] It was previously a small village with a post office and stores, but later became part of Indianapolis.
Bridgeport was platted in 1831. It was also called West Parkview and Sunnyside. It was an early African-American community in Marion County.[2] With the passing of Unigov in 1970, Bridgeport, like much of Marion County, was incorporated into Indianapolis.
Bridgeport is located in Wayne Township near the intersection of Bridgeport Road and Washington Street (US 40).
