One of the first fairgrounds in Indiana, this site opened in 1857 and hosted the state fair in 1859. During the Civil War, a military post on the grounds was named Camp Noble for Indiana's Adj. Gen. Noble. The last fair was held here in 1905, and in 1906 the site became the Fairmont subdivision, named for the fair.
