A bohemian neighborhood in Midtown with old bungalows, independent bookstores, breweries and restaurants, popular with locals for eating and drinking.
Centered on the intersection of Cooper Street and Young Avenue, the district has craft breweries, brunch spots, vinyl record shops and galleries. Its iconic metal arch is a popular photo spot. Restaurants have a great atmosphere in the evening, making this a good choice if you want to avoid the crowds on Beale Street. A taxi from downtown takes about 15 minutes.
