I'm sure we could add dozens more.

Indianapolis Museum of Art
Eli Lilly House (on those same grounds) as well as the gardens are all worth seeing. They're also breaking ground on something like 100 more acres of public park.
President Benjamin Harrison's House
Monon Trail

I need coffee or else I'd add more.

The National Medal of Honor Memorial...that is right we have it.....NATIONAL....DC never built one so the wife of the CEO of IPL built one here in Indy to remember those that went above and beyond in defense of our country. Randy Shugart and Gary Gordon you are sorely missed!!!

Also the USS Indianapolis Memorial, historic society building, crown hill cemetary Union and Confederate soldier memorials, Military Park, Scottish Rite Cathedral, Soldiers and Sailors Monument, Indiana State Museum, not sure if the zoo was mentioned, Conner Prairie, the canal system, slippery noodle (Al Capone slept there). I am sure I can come up with more.

Also the Indianapolis Motor Speedway's Hall of Fame museum and tours of the track!!!!! You can keep going back to the museum because they keep changing the dsiplays. Tony George owns so many historic open wheel race cars he doesnt have enough space to show them off at one time so they have cars on cycles. He has a warehouse somewhere where they store them all!!!

Spyder hit the ones I was going to mention.

However, one that I'm surprised was not mentioned is the Indianapolis War Memorial. The best part of it is the very top. Very awe inspiring but yet a hidden gem in downtown.
