About
Established in 1979 on more than 65 acres, Graham Edward Martin Park sits at 16th and Fall Creek Parkway just north of downtown Indianapolis. Formerly named 16th and Fall Creek Park, it was renamed after Lt. Graham Edward Martin who served as one of the first African American officers in the United States Navy. After serving four years as a ship commander in the Navy, Martin would coach varsity football and baseball at Crispus Attucks High School from 1947-1982.
The park offers shelters, basketball courts, softball diamonds, tennis courts, and playground equipment. It is partially wooded and borders Fall Creek.
