A City for the horseless carriage The town of Speedway was developed as a city of the future. Meant to be a testing ground much like the famed race track which is its namesake, Speedway was designed to be a city that was hospitable to the car. In a time when Indianapolis streets were still often the narrow orange brick thoroughfares laid by Ralston in the 1920's and thirties a town with paved roads and homes with garages and not carriage houses must have seemed completely alien. The track as well as the town that has grown up around it have stood a remarkable test of time. Nearly a hundred years after their founding the track still stands as the largest sporting facility in human history and the innovations of Speedway are a thing of common use such as the rear view mirror pioneered by Ray Haroun the winner of the first Indianapolis 500.
