Italian Village map

Italian Village Neighborhood Overview

Brick, Bocce, & Hoof Hearted Hazies

🧭Bordered by: East 5th Avenue to the north, I 670 to the south, North High Street to the west, the railroad corridor along I 71 to the east

📌Best known for: Budd Dairy, brick lofts, breweries (Hoof Hearted has a taproom here), dangerously photogenic latte art at Luck Bros or Garden

👕You can spot an Italian Village local by: reusable totes from North Market, patio beers at Fourth Street Bar & Grill, midcentury couches visible through big warehouse windows, omnipresent rescue dogs named something like Bernard or Phyllis

👍Move here for: walkability, downtown proximity, Instagrammable brick charm

👎Be prepared for: impossible parking, constant construction, weekend revelers, early train horns

The general vibe is: brick bougie with brewery breath and rent that's climbed 40% in five years

Third wave coffee lifers and strollered dogs (this is where we are in terms of humanity. We stroller our dogs.)
