North Irvington Gardens Historic District
The North Irvington Gardens Historic District (wikipedia) is the part of the Indianapolis Eastside that is directly north of where I live. It is another great Indianapolis neighborhood, and is full of people. Technically, it is on the national register of historic places, but is not a locally registered historic district. This can sometimes be an important distinction, but it depends on what your own feelings on the matter are.
The only local blogger I could find was this website: Irvington Terrace blog. It isn't what I would call particularly active, but if you are a resident of the area maybe you can hint to the author you would like to see more, or maybe you know of another website/blog and can post a link in the comments section.
Two important businesses in this area are the Community East hospital branch and the Historic Steer-In restaurant. Only one of the two serves beer, so you can guess which one you are getting photos of...
Built in the 1950's, the Steer-In used modern design to stand out
The covered drive-in design still looks great
This is about as authentic a place as you can find
Steer-In has a limited but very good bottle beer selection
I am particularly fond of the stuffed pizza

I would also much rather visit the Steer Inn instead of the hospital :) In my opinion, they probably make some of the best Belgian waffles in the city.
Agree with MH. Beer sometimes makes for simple decisions.
I have to eat here some day.
I haven't made it to the Belgian waffles yet, I always end up getting the Eggs Benedict with an Anchor Steam.
I am a fan of Steer-In on facebook, so I also receive a list of the blue-plate specials every day. I love it.
The Wikipedia article has a link to the Master-Card commercial filmed at the restaurant with Peyton Manning (D-Caf!), so that's another fun piece of trivia to explore.
