The Gulch map

The Gulch Neighborhood Overview

Angel-Wing Selfies, Bonuts, LEED Chic

🧭Bordered by: Demonbreun and Broadway north, 8th Avenue Southeast, I-40 and the CSX rail cut south, 12th and 13th Avenue South west, sliding just under the I-65 loop.

📌Best known for: Instawings, the Angel Wings mural, Station Inn, champagne on patios, boutique shopping, Nahville Hot Chicken, Jackalope Brewing, and vibrant nightlife.

👕The neighborhood stereotype is: athleisure, tiny dog, massive cold brew; a former railroad yard turned walkable redevelopment featuring LEED-certified buildings.

👍Move here for: elevators, zero yard, and the Biscuit Love brunch within flip flop distance.

👎Be prepared for: pricey parking, bachelorettes, endless elevator small talk, and great dining options.

The overall feel is: Shiny, buzzy, bougie, walkable, and completely photogenic.
