LOUISVILLE

Louisville Neighborhoods

BUTCHERTOWN

One of Louisville’s oldest neighborhoods, Butchertown,

just east of downtown, was the city’s original meatpacking district with butcher shops dominating the area in the 1800s. These days, though one large meatpacker still anchors the area, Butchertown is in the middle of a renaissance and is seeing an influx of tasty restaurants, chic boutiques, the city’s only brandy distillery, and a state-of-the-art soccer stadium.

CRESCENT HILL & CLIFTON

Take a stroll along Frankfort Avenue, the main thoroughfare through the leafy and charming Crescent Hill and Clifton neighborhoods. You’ll find historic homes and buildings, treelined streets, alfresco dining and locally- owned shops peppering this railroad- lined avenue and one of the city’s noted, “Restaurant Rows.”
