A 0.3-mile sidewalk loop makes it an option for a short walk when you have limited time. Add it to your area tour to see the smaller recreation spaces woven into the residential streets.
First & Main’s outdoor events. Nearby First & Main has a seasonal event calendar that includes summer concerts, activities on the lawn, and fall gatherings.
