Moses Dunn (1842-1915) was an early landowner in Bloomington, and was the man who sold Dunn's Woods to Indiana University. He sold the 20 acres in 1883 for $6,000, while keeping several acres north of 7th Street, in University Courts.

Some years later Indiana Avenue was extended northward and paved, dividing Dunn's property and causing him great bitterness towards the city. He moved to Bedford and died there a bachelor, leaving behind an estate of more than $250,000.
