Fargo's urban core and cultural heart.
Living in Downtown Fargo
Downtown Fargo has a lively, creative atmosphere and stands out as the city’s cultural center, with a more urban vibe for people who want condo living steps from shops, restaurants and entertainment venues. Century-old theaters and storefronts line Broadway, the heart of the neighborhood, while office buildings and hotels rise around it. Parks and seasonal events, like ice skating at Broadway Square, get people outside, and solid highway and public transit access make for easy commutes through the rest of the metro area.
What the housing options are like
Condos are the main form of housing downtown. You'll find everything from modern construction — including luxury options — to older or historic buildings converted into fresh living spaces. Newer luxury buildings may offer heated underground parking, fitness rooms and pet-friendly amenities such as dog runs. Prices span a wide range, but most have sold between the low $100,000s and the low $400,000s. On the lowest end, they start in the high $80,000s; on the highest end, they fetch nearly $2 million. You'll also find some single-family homes in and around the greater downtown area, selling from the low $90,000s to the mid-$300,000s, though they are far less common.
The community vibe and culture
Downtown is one of Fargo's busiest and most culturally rich areas. "It's a little more of an edgy part of Fargo, urban, walkable. It's where a lot of the food and drink scene is," says Realtor Rachel Rogen, with eXp Realty, who has a decade's worth of experience. "For entertainment, you've got Fargo Theatre, Plains Art Museum, galleries, fairs, that kind of stuff." She also points out there's a good mix of young professionals and college students around, with North Dakota State University having a downtown campus.
Things to do in the downtown area
Broadway, Main Avenue and nearby blocks are packed with shopping, dining and entertainment. Vinyl Taco serves Mexican street food in an eclectic music-themed space. Rosewild and Prairie Kitchen are two other favorites. "In my opinion, they are the best date night spots," says Danni Melquist, marketing director for Visit Fargo-Moorhead. "Rosewild is super cool," adds Jenny Buhr, a Realtor with Trilogy Real Estate and president of Doorsteps Midwest. "They will actually cater to you and give you a seven-course meal based on what the chef wants to do for you." There's also Roberts Alley, a trendy corridor with murals and atmospheric patio dining. For a caffeinated drink, you'll find craft coffee shops like Twenty Below Coffee Co. and Atomic Coffee. As the day moves to night, Fargo Brewing Co. transforms from a beer mecca into an entertainment space where regional and nationally touring bands take the stage.
Other ways to enjoy the downtown area:
Browse local shops like Revolver for vintage clothing and Unglued for handmade goods.
Attend events, including the Red River Farmers Market, open from summer to fall.
Catch a concert or classic film at the Fargo Theatre or a comedy show at The Cellar.
Explore exhibits or take classes at the Plains Art Museum.
Mezzaluna serves three and four course meals.

It's easy to get to a wide range of restaurants and entertainment on foot.
Downtown is extremely walkable
Roads around Downtown Fargo can be busy, as this area takes the brunt of tourism and business traffic. But once you find a place to park, downtown's walkability makes it easy to get to hotels, museums, parks, dining and shopping. MATBUS, the Fargo-Moorhead metro system, features bus routes in and out of the area, and Amtrak’s Empire Builder train stops at the Fargo station. Interstate 94 links the downtown core to Moorhead and West Fargo, with the I-94 Red River bridge functioning as a key commuter connection. Hector International Airport is roughly 5 miles away.
Outdoor activities locals enjoy
Downtown Fargo's main parks include Island Park, Broadway Square, Dike East Park and Dike West Park. Island Park is a popular spot for tennis, swimming in the pool, and letting the kids burn some energy off at the playground. Dike West Park features a large skate park and basketball courts. You can launch your boat into the Red River from Dike East Park during the warmer months and use its cross-country ski trails during the winter. Broadway Square, in the heart of downtown, is a gathering space that hosts seasonal activities, including ice skating between December and March.
