Residents enjoy proximity to popular dining spots like Gerri’s Bar & Grill and Latin King Italian Dining, as well as outdoor spaces such as Laurel Hill Park and Ashfield Park. The neighborhood is known for its annual Iowa State Fair, held at the nearby Iowa State Fairgrounds, which also hosts various events throughout the year.
